Haiku Friday: Fall Saturdays



Fall is my favorite time of the year. I have always felt like I am guided by the academic calendar, even when I was not a student or teacher, and the weather is great.

In the fall, it is Saturdays that define us. The early-morning run, football, homecomings... it all happens on Saturdays. So, let's haiku about that.

Here is mine:

We were the Norsemen
Running young over gold leaves
Happy on the bus.

Now it is your turn...

Chill air, hill country
Alive with a single chant:
Go Texas! Fight! Fight!

Saturdays define
me: winter, spring, summer, fall
Always at school. Sad.

Our team, the Catfish
So to speak, they sucked, bad
But we had great floats!

Fall football games played,
new relationships begin.
Need more wins than losses.

P.S. Osler, how come you no longer announce the winner of the haiku contest? This is like Midway Soccer.

I never liked them,
Saturdays, that is. Don't Know
why. I need structure.
