The 12 Haiku of Christmas

The 12 Haiku of Christmas Day 1 Generous woman Lovely partridge she gave me Tree, unexpected Day 2 Doves arrived today Oddly dressed in turtlenecks Fought partridge for tree Day 3 Foreign born birds came Not happy with their new home Insist on chateaus Day 4 What’s with all the birds? Four just arrived with cell phones Each touch screen challenged Day 5 She went to Jared’s She financed five rings of gold Our house now for sale Day 6 Breakfast problem solved Personal egg factory Very noisy one Day 7 Pool confiscated Fowl swans swimming recklessly Need hygiene lessons Day 8 Eight maids and eight cows Neighbors beginning to talk I will not cowtow Day 9 Nine pole dancing gals Neighbors now taking pictures Need liquor license Day 10 Lords arrived FedEx Stuffed in very small boxes They leaped out quickly Day 11 Pipers piped too long Sound ordinance was broken Police were summoned Day 12 Twelve drummers drumming Police cart me to quiet cell Silent night at last
