Yes, that's right, it was that time of year again - time for the annual clue-la-palooza! This time we went for haiku, which are fun, easy, and fast. For those playing along at home, ready, get set, go!
1:
Cooking tasty dish?
Still needs pungent allium…
Hands too tired to chop.
2:
Cousin with lame clothes?
You helped, bought mozzareppa.
Now you get one too.
3:
Going on a trip?
Off to see the fourth planet?
Tips on what to bring.
4:
Too cold on the couch,
But winter TV beckons.
Snuggle under this!
5:
Slender swaying reeds
Delicate and feminine
Captured on a strand
6:
Now you won’t have trouble
With those pesky princesses –
It’ll guard their tower.
7:
Chicken noodle? Borscht?
Latte? Cappuccino? Tea?
Serve them nice and hot!
8:
Long before striped canes,
Seeing-eye dogs or brail type,
One man sailed the world
9:
Cliff Lee ‘s a Phillie
Jakey may become a fan
Show him the Yankees
10:
If straight copying
Is praise, then what is artful
Mockery? Tough love.
11:
Butterflies are cute
But everybody thinks that
Only we like these
12:
Currently empty
But meant to hold pretty things
Don’t forget water
