Haiku brain exerciseIn our Top 50 Brain Teasers post, we concluded with the challenge:

#50. Can you write a haiku describing your experience doing some of the previous teasers? The simple rules: write 3 lines, which don’t need to rhyme, containing 5,7, and 5 syllables. You can leave your haiku as a comment for extra points…

There has been a number of great and fun takers so far…enjoy their haikus below! And Happy Thanksgiving.
