Inadvertent Haiku

Inspired by this, something a friend made: http://tinyurl.com/5cjcsc

I responded with this:

"I would love a vise; I'd love to make my own too"

Realizing I had inadvertently almost made I haiku, I followed up with:

"But I missed shop class"

Sometimes the best haikus are accidental.

Road Construction Love Song

Graders a' gradin'
and bulldozers bulldozerin'
make Jen a smooth road.

O, Construction Guy!
I haven't glimpsed you yet, but
in my mind you're hot.

Thank you for my road!
Only just begun, but still
I see the future.

Pothole free, I see,
And nearly two miles shorter.
Yay! for Stealthmobile.

O, Roadwork Crew Guy!
I want to bake you brownies
just to say Thank You.

Radio Contest Redux

LocalRadioStation had ANOTHER haiku contest, and this was my submission. The DJs read it on-air, but I still didn't win. ::sob::



Geoffrey Castle's* strings
sing like heavenly angels.
I wanna hear too.

Go to Platinum Jaxx
All my worries swept away
on a violin

Free drinks? Free meal and
awesome free entertainment?
Dude, I am so there.

I am so broke and
my job is very stressful.
Winning would be nice.

I haiku for you
I was denied once before
You owe me, Mister!


*In the original email, I misspelled his name, but otherwise this is unedited, even though I'd REALLY like to change that second "so" to "quite."
