Oh Seattle: The Haiku

In some ways, I'm still learning how to be a Seattlite. There are some things that seem so quintessentially Seattle, and the haiku is one of them. I never wrote a haiku outside of a classroom. No one has ever read one to me outside of a classroom either... until I moved to Seattle. Birthdays, anniversaries, fridays, snacks, winning games and willing ears all earn a haiku. I would write one, but, as I said, I'm still learning to be a Seattlite. That said, it's wonderfully quirky and literate... kind of like the city.
