Ok Cody has instructed us to give away some of his mugs.  This mug will be awarded for a haiku poem about Cody. This mini contest lasts only 24 hours! It will end June 14th at 9am NY time. Just post your entries as replies to this post; you may enter multiple times. Those who have already received cody mugs may NOT enter. from http://www.kidzone.ws/poetry/haiku.htm"Haiku" is a traditional form of Japanese poetry. Haiku poems consist of 3 lines. The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables. The lines rarely rhyme.
Here's a Haiku to help you remember:
I am first with five
Then seven in the middle --
Five again to end. |

It will end June 14th at 9am NY time. You sure about that - do we have to include time travel in the solution too? |

Cody has been geedy lately ... Sweet little Cody ... Don't eat all donated coins!!! Mouser will be cross  or Mouser tried to send us all on a time quest (Cody took it seriously) ...  Cody, time trav'ler Be careful tiny bird or Caught in endless loops  or Cody sometime feels a bit frisky ... keep a lid on it! What a bad Cody Don't go baring all your stuff You'll be in the BUFF!!!  |

the time has arrived to pick a winner, and it seems everyone has a personal favorite..
but since nudone is cody's creator, it seems only fitting he should choose the winner.. so Rover gets the cup today.

I just received an angry missive from Cody himself insisting that jdd also receive a cup for his haiku (my home is the road).
so congratulations to jdd and Rover both.

they were all great so don't feel bad if you didn't win one - we will be giving out some more cups in the next couple of weeks.

The best part about Rover's poem (about not liking haikus) is that it's not really a haiku (the second line has only 6 syllables). Great ironic touch.  I too hate haiku
It's a lame type of poem
