onto the floor
my chowder spills
welcome mat

Ah, welcoming, indeed.
Especially when you tell yuor guests
that your floor is so clean
they can eat off of it!

-
Still makes me laugh when I think about what you told me.
Such a story behind this haiku


-
See now, you tell folk it was an accident but really you just don't want them to come in! Wouldn't work for me, I'd just start lapping it up...Hey! a floor is as good as a bowl or plate!
Your sister expects you to clean it up...wait for her to arrive, hand her the mop.

I can see it now, Sis... I hope you have it cleaned up before we get there

And good luck in the contest
