Haiku and you

The Guardian -- quite possibly the best newspaper in the world, and now easily my favorite newspaper -- has chosen my haiku as one of its best entries in a daily topical haiku contest. Read my entry and the many others right here.

Actually, because I believe The Guardian only leaves these on its site for a few days, this is my entry:

Clinton's library:
Presidents who read get one.
Bush's? "My Pet Goat."

The contest mandates only that the entry follow the five/seven/five syllable structure of haiku and that the submission make some reference to a recent event or topic.

Thanks, Guardian. I love being chosen....

Validation is
sweet, even for seventeen
syllable works. Yay!
