Yep, little ole me who never wins anything can now claim fame as the co-winner of an original "Avon Haiku Contest" hosted by Birdie on her blog at http://blogs.salon.com/0003522/. In honor of May 7th, 2005 which as you will notice has the same numerical value as a haiku's syllables (5-7-5), Birdie posted a contest for all her readers, promising a box of Avon goodies to the one who could come up with the best Avon related haiku. To my surprise when I visited her blog today, I discovered that I shared the honor of that title with another fellow reader. Below is my "winning" entry:
Heard that Bust-Sculpt cream,
Has been used on men's *ahem* parts.
Wonder if it worked?
*** Interestingly enough, that haiku is derived from a true story told by a fellow Avon lady at one of our local sales meetings. Scary thought, huh? ***

Other things....hobbies...yes, I have tons of them. Reading, sewing, playing league tennis, and as for all things crafty - you name it, I've probably tried it. I am a 29 year-old what? Christian? Yes - far from perfect but graciously forgiven. Wife? Mmmhmm - blessed to be married to my soul-mate for almost 9 years now. Mother? Yep - expecting our FOURTH daughter soon!

The fact that your haiku is based on a true story is more than a little scary. :)
Congratulations! I hope you get some really cool stuff.
Congratulations!!!!!
