Haiku - The Holiday 2006 Version


Sucked into candle scents,
which aromas do I crave?
Pine, berries, and warm sand.

Tree from Nova Scotia;
a gift from the Great White North.
Do we have enough lights?

Online shopping is grand.
In pajamas at midnight,
I think this is the best.

Lamb shanks, perfectly cooked,
For our dinner Christmas Eve.
Hey - we had carrots too.

It's not really a gift
but the love behind the gift
that so captures my heart.

Stoic-
Check your rules for haiku - your syllables are way way off. It's supposed to be a 5 syllable beginning, 7 syllable middle, and 5 syllable ending.

I received a warm sand scented candle as a gift and all I can say is it smells warm & sandy. I can't make this shit up.
