Football And Haiku?

Given the aproaching big game, we were inspired to pen a haiku.  Wanna hear it, here it goes:

     "A Fitting Haiku

      North Country v. Goliath

           --Gridiron Ballet"

 

You're going to need a cool T-shirt or bumper sticker.  Peace Love FOOTBALL.

Vanity Is Underrated...

If you're like me, you find plenty of things to beat yourself up about.   The least of which goes a little something like this:  "why oh why did I eat yet another chocolate covered graham cookie?", or "why did I convince myself it was ok to skip my workout last night?", or "why aren't I living the sweet life somewhere exotic, surrounded by fabulousness?".   You're no doubt picking up what I'm putting down.  

In the midst of my personal "why's", Michael Jackson came to mind.   Apparently Michael was, in spite of his talented brilliance, a lonely unhappy soul.  And the love of tens of millions of fans didn't mean so much when he could not come to love himself.  All this deep thinking inspired me to pen a haiku, a modern haiku in the name of self love.  A modern haiku fit for a T-shirt:

Twinkle, twinkle Christmas lights...

 

It's a cold night in Cincinnati.  A relatively balmy 33 degrees fahrenheit.  'Tis the season for intentions of peace on earth and goodwill toward men.  We're inspired to write an oddFrogg haiku, lyrically styled and just for you!

  Cold December night

    --  Twinkle, twinkle Christmas lights

          --  Egg nog sounds just right!

Saturday afternoon baseball...

 

 

I adore rainy, stormy Saturday afternoons.  I'm chilled out (I use this term way too much), and enjoying the creative process while watching Saturday afternoon baseball.  I ask you, does it get much better?  Hope you're also chilled or, maybe better yet, out  having entirely too much fun.  It's all good.  If you're inclined, here's a Saturday afternoon haiku, baseball style and just for you!

Afternoon Baseball

       - Run Reed!  Run!  Slide!  ...Safe!

 

Y'all know that center fielder, Reed Johnson,  is one of the best old-school players in the game today.  Right?

Sunday evening sunshine...

 

As a great weekend winds down, I'm getting my Twitter on and truly digging the zenned out tweets of Russell Simmons, the philanthropic, spiritually mindful, mega-successful entrepreneur who helped put hip hop on the map. Yoga on the beach with Rodney Yee? Wow!

I'm inspired to try my hand at an oddFrogg haiku, chilled out style and just for you!
