Haiku Friday: An ornament



Many of us have trees up right now, covered with ornaments that bear all kinds of meaning.  I love doing that, and then go and check out the tree every now and then. Many of my ornaments were made by my mom; she's great at it.

Let's haiku about those ornaments this week! Here, I will go first:

A friendly camel
With such long, dangly legs
Christmas visitor.

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 formula, and have some fun!

Comments:
Hallmark Bobby Orr
And Teddy Ball Game at bat;
Hub Saints deck the tree!

Red Sox ornaments
Of every stripe hang in glory;
Celebrate four crowns!

Brady, the NFL GOAT,
Super Bowls my father saw not.
Prayers answered, Lord!

There is one Lord God.
Yet, lords and gods of Boston
Saved New England’s faith(ful)!

 
A Christmas Camel
More Like Christmas Jellyfish
Cute either way

Single, young and broke
Got baubles from hippie Aunts,
leftovers from work

Creepy Chinese dude
Angels with Beer mugs (trade group)
fishes, crabs, random stuff

Each one still on tree
Also glue-glitter orbs with
Libby, Miri, Max
 
Tiny Yogi and
Boo-Boo from Moma. Cherished
more and more each year.

 
moved in right before
Christmas, first ornament a
cowboy Santa ball.
 
We have a small tree
with only ornaments made
by your Mom, treasures...
 
Brother at age six
Crafted homemade ornaments
Paperclips and crayon

The best of them all:
Seven happy cockroaches
Pulling Santa's sleigh
 
First gift from new girl
Was a snowman ornament.
The wedding's next month.
