Haiku Friday with a glass of wine


[graphics courtesy, I think, of The Onion.

First of all, let me give you a summer wine recommendation: Clos du Bois pinot grigio. Sure, it's lightweight and a little grassy, but that's what summer is all about, right? I wouldn't have it with grilled burgers, but it is perfect for sipping on a deck by a lake somewhere.

Now, to the Haiku. Here are the topics:

1) Euro 2008
2) The world's best coffee and/or donut
3) What to wear on the beach
4) Airlines make me mad
5) The pool
6) Summer wine
7) Reality television
8) Grand Jury
9) San Francisco
10) Tomatoes

Here is mine:

"The World's Best Donuts"
For once, a sign that is true--
Grand Marais, MN

Now it is your turn--

Comments:
The world's best coffee
Wood-paneled cake shop in Zurich
Schwartzenbach's cafe creme;

Or roadside cafe,
Tuscany. First espresso
Outside Switzerland,

Roasted heaven in
White ceramic, aroma
Of earth and lived life.
 
The Euro...when there
Are that many Germans in
Austria its bad.
 
Is that... no true bill?
I sit in fear in the hall
Nervously waiting.
 
Airlines make me mad
Never flying out on time
Amer'can Eagle
 
Turkey seeking Yes
From E.U.; maybe Swiss loss
will get Them a win

Melancholy kid
Last law school quarter; July bar
Summer wines? Needed.

Weekend? What is that?
Many florescent lights; few trees.
Post-bar trip, past due.
 
Poland, oh so close!
Then the ref gives game away!
Who paid off the ref?
 
If I were the King
I would ban Speedo bathing
Suits. No exceptions.

For RRL:

The contraction for
"It is" is "It's". NOT "Its". I
Expected better

Of Razor readers.
Students make this mistake all
Of the time, alas.
 
Hi grammar nazi!!

Student...me so slow!!

It doesn't help that
I get all my info from
Rush Limbaugh podcast.
 
Summer in San Fran

Scandal! But died as you lived.
Rest in peace, chimp.

Some may disagree

Wanted to shake him:
