Underfoot Beta Access Challenge #2: The Haiku

Deadline: Friday, November 20, 2009 at 9:00 am US Pacific - PST [/URL]

The Challenge: In the Underfoot beta pool and haven't gotten selected yet? Here's another chance for you to get into the Underfoot beta!

The basis of a haiku is 3 lines with 5, 7, 5 syllables. Here's an example:

Fog in the distance
A black ship full of pirates
Plunder on mateys!

Fog (1) in (1) the (1) distance (2) = 5
A (1) black (1) ship (1) full (1) of (1) pirates (2) = 7
Plunder (2) on (1) mateys (2) = 5

Count your syllables! Make sure it's just one haiku and not a story, poem or caption.
