I am just getting over a terrible bout with the flu and I would like some cheery haiku that will cheer me up and make me feel better.
I will be pretty liberal on the definition of a haiku as this contest is just for fun.
Haiku chains are welcome.
Enter as many times as you like.
RULES:
THE ONLY RULE IS THAT I DO NOT WANT ANY TRADITIONAL OR 5-7-5 HAIKU ENTERED.
Why no traditional you may ask. The answer is very simple. Because it is my contest and I make the rules.

I so love a good haiku, even though I can't write one to save myself. I have read through all of these submissions and I have a feeling you are going to have quite a time deciding on the winners. Good luck to them all. I hope you are feeling better.
