So as part of my Newbie Scavenger Hunt the victims...uh...I mean contestants...had to write a cigar themed Haiku. For those not familiar a Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry generally characterized by a 5, 7, 5 syllable structure. Here are the entries:

JDog

To smoke a Boris
Spice and leather melody
Until its last puff

Monsterdog

The night is mild, the
Beer is cold; my friends are near.
Stick, Spark, Smoke, Ah bliss!

AZSaxman

A hot flame ignites.
billowing cigar smoke calms,
removes the stress of life.

Tobacco Giant

Brothers of the leaf
We smoke, we share, and we grieve
For smoked sticks now gone

Mickeymorris626

A hand rolled cigar
Is the best way to relax
Best enjoyed with friends

yellen

Intoxicating
It paints the air of white fog
I smoke my Padron

49ersnut

The cherry glows red
Billowing puffs of sweet smoke
I am in Heaven

So it's up to you BOTL to decide who claims the points for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. I will have the poll up shortly and the most votes gets first and so on. If you submitted an entry for this, but do not see it up here PM me ASAP. May the best poet win...

I am voting for Jdog in hopes that I will get a Boris and see whether the poem is true!
I wrote my poem while smoking the Boris that Ciggy sent me... you're not getting one from me... I love that stick! I'm hoarding all of them... :devil:

Jdog's has been the first entry in each of these threads. Playing a little favoritism, aren't we Daniel?!?!

:)
The entries appear to be in the order that we originally signed up... I would like to be in yellen's slot... he's cleaning up in a lot of these poles.:bouncetau

Even though I'm not part of the Scavenger hunt, I thought I'd share a haiku or few.
Enjoy.

Forever my love
Partagas Serie D 4
Monte Number 2.

The pleasures of smoke
Brought to you by a legend
Pete Johnson, the man.

A moment away
from the stresses of this life
My vice, tobacco.

How could you ever
deny the simple pleasure
a cigar brings you?

If Illusione
was from the I S O M,
Yankees couldn't smoke.

Short Runs Robustos
Are deliciously tasty
Go buy them now.

His balls in a jar
Only seldomly opened
Cigars, for the pair.

If only I had
The retreat of a man cave
Life would be so sweet.

Well I have to give my vote to JDog because...well...It's my cigar dammit! lOL
I have to give solid props to AZsaxman's entry as that's how I feel everytime I light up.
Good job everyone!:thumbsup:
