Haiku Friday: Celebrity Encounters

 

Everyone has a story about some kind of an encounter with a celebrity. Let's haiku about those this week! Here, I will go first:
 
Jimmy Carter came
To hear me speak. Told me this:
"Do more, do it now." 
 
(I wrote about that encounter here) 
 
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!
