Haiku

For reasons irrelevant to the nature of this blog, the topic of Haiku came up recently. A search online for more info on it has revealed two fun things.

One is this site, which is nice and has information on teaching and writing haiku.

The other was mention of random haiku generators such as this one. In playing with the haiku generator I discovered the option to change the vocabulary list it draws on. "Golf" vocabulary was an option. To my disappointment, medicine and health were not categories, nor does it seem they are in other generators I found. I think I might have a christmas project.

Until then, here's a hand made health haiku, a coda for the extra long ragweed season which has managed to overlap with the post-thanksgiving-travel cold going around at work.

Allergy or cold
Kleenex hide     cough drops
No. Empty foil packs
