Contest is Done - Congrats pkb

We did a random drawing for a YoYoStringLab T-shirt and pkb won.

Here is how to enter:

  • Post your own made up yoyo haiku.  It’s easy, generally it’s 3 short lines, beginning with 5 syllables on the first line, then 7 on the second line, then 5 on the last (sometimes fewer syllables are used).
  • We won’t be picky on the haiku form at all, no perfect prose needed.  So have fun with it and don’t worry.  (See the example below.)
  • You can post more than one haiku, but no more than 2 posts per page including non-haiku posts; otherwise, your posts on that page won’t count.
  • The cutoff for entries is Saturday, Dec. 1, 2012, at noon Pacific Standard Time.

A reply post will be randomly selected.  If that post contains an eligible haiku, then we have a winner.  If not, the process will be repeated until we have a winner.
The winner will get to select any one of the YoYoStringLab T-shirts from my website.
The winning T-shirt will be mailed to any U.S. address or International address from this list.
These guidelines may be changed as needed.
Here’s an example haiku:
“Got a C last Fall.
Should be deep into homework.
Just one more combo.”

Deliberate string;
Type X, forgiving my skills.
My slacks are open.

Many strings fade out
They loose their soft feel and bounce
It’s time for String Lab!

There once was a man from Nantucket…wait that’s not right.

With a bad snag, CRACK!
My knuckles are now bleeding.
Should of bought String Lab.

Flying in the air
Sometimes its hard to see
Gotta keep up

When I was a kid
My yoyos were made of wood
None of those bearings.

If it doesn’t last
Its not a Yoyostringlab
Go get your today

I love to Yoyo
That is what I do the best
String Lab better then rest

Complementary;
Colour just right for my throw.
Blue on orange, BOOM!

Stringlab is awesome
Throwing whips and slack all day
Wowing all the crowds

Haikus are silly
Yoyos are so much better
Refrigerator

I like to yoyo
and with what string, you may ask?
yoyostringlab, yeah!

I like food a lot
But I like yoyos way more
You Have a marry Christmas

I don’t always throw
When I do, I prefer some
yoyostringlab string!

I like to yoyo
And I like to eat some food
And yoyos and food

I have been trying to write a haiku, but some things I just cannot do!

I cannot haiku
But if it comes to yoyos
I can’t do that too

::slight_smile: Lol…

strings flying around
drop a GT, get a knot
Dang it not again

I hate lots of knots!
Every single one I hate them
In my yoyo string!

Tried to land a whip.
I thought about what I should do.
String lab is for you!
