some 5/7/5 Valentine haiku
no. 7
sugar candy treats
always make me think of you
they make me sick too
no. 8
roses are thorny
dandelions have bad smell
so do you as well
no. 9
if you go away
one last thing i beg to say:
don’t ever come back
no.10
you think you’re quite good
but i have to tell you true
your sister beats you

OHH Yuuuk Heath, who would send Valentines like that? Hmm I guess some boys would if they were not yet interested in girls, or an ex spouse or girl/boyfriend.

Dear Heath,
I thought Valentine's Day was supposed to be about LOVE!?? Funny haiku's, though I surely wouldn't want to receive any of them in my mailbox!
<3 Maureen
P.S.: Congratulations to kiwi's for winning first N Z gold medal!!!

LOLOL Those are anti-Valentines poems!
How rude to write such things to your Valentine, what did she do to you?! And I surely hope they aren't for Hine or you'll be big troubles!

Reverse valentines
have their hazards! Be aware
\ fleet of foot too!

OOOOH Just as well you never sent any of the Valentine haiku's to me, you would be in BIG trouble.
Great haiku's though my Husband.
Love Hine

Haha, I'm sure people would love to be on the receiving end of these loving, endearing writes.
Best of luck in the contest.

I checked "random" and got this haiku. How clever and sweet.(haha). Really fun and quick. One to remember. Thanks

Dear Heathcote,
You not only missed V-day, but my birthday, Easter, Queens Birthday, Commonwealth Day and if she hadn't reminded you you'd have missed Hine's birthday as well. You better not miss A/J's big day or you'll be deep in the mulligatawny!!
I think if this is what you'd have sent out on Valentine cards, it's a blessing that you missed it.
They are quite funny I suppose.
Applause anyway and best of luck in contest. Hugh (R.)

HAHA Very funny haiku's Heath. That's one way to get rid of an unwanted suitor, by the way, Valentines day was last February!
Love AJ
