Haiku by Clibrig










I'm pretty keen on this Haiku thing, so I submitted one of my best for publication.
Here it is. My masterpiece:

                                                     haiku is pleasing
                                                 if you're anal retentive
                                                    five, seven then five.  




                                                                                                                     

Then my rejection letter:

Dear Mr Clibrig
Thank you for your submitting a poem.
I've decided not to accept it.
John

(I'm sure Tennyson had a drawerful of similar letters before he hit the big time.)
