Haiku Friday: The Paper
I'm a newspaper guy; I always have been. When I was in elementary school, I used to rush home for lunch. My mom would make me lunch and I would read the Detroit Free Press. Now I often get to write for newspapers, too, and I'm still a big consumer.
Let's haiku about that this week-- the newspapers we love now, or remember from our childhood. Maybe even the newspaper we really don't like, or a memory of a parent or grandparent reading the paper.
Here, I'll go first:
I lit a candle,
Read the paper, ate my soup
The paper caught fire...
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable formula and have some fun!
