Haiku
Competition
The winner of last issue's Haiku Competition
happens to be the only original submission. Written by
B.D. Thomas, grandfather to second-year law student Sarah
Glorian, and written for his late wife, Glorian.
Glorian, my love
You are long remembered,
Never forgotten
Other submissions of note include the following
Internet tumbleweeds. First, on computers.
A file that big?
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
Three things are
certain:
Death, taxes, and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.
Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.
And now, those lovable furniture-demolishing
companions.
The rule for
today:
Touch my tail, I shred your hand.
New rule tomorrow.
Terrible battle.
I fought for hours. Come and see!
What's a 'term paper'?
Small brave carnivores
Kill pine cones and mosquitoes
Fear vacuum cleaner
