HAPPY BIRTHDAY Saarbrücken Daily Photo!

Wohoo, Saarbrücken Daily Photo is one year old!
We were celebrating at a sushi party today (actually we were celebrating the birthday of a friend who also had a house warming party). So that's 3 in 1 for tonight! =)

BIRTHDAY COMPETITION!!!
I just came up with the idea to have another competition: The one of you writing the most creative birthday wish as a comment, will win a surprise package from Saarbrücken!!!
There is one restriction though, since we celebrated having a sushi party: Your wish must be written in the form of a Haiku* (it's a Japanese poetry pattern, 5 syllables - 7 syllables - 5 syllables) !!!

The competition will be on for 3 days, until April 24th midnight (GMT).
So be creative and celebrate with me... =)

*If you want to read more about Haiku, check Wikipedia

We call those California rolls here. People who are afraid to eat sushi will take a roll. I make them when our avocados are ripe (3 avocado trees in the garden and 6 months of ripe fruit)

Dear Conny

Love ya and all
but please please don't promulgate the myth that haiku is merely any old poem of 17 syllables.
I know I run the risk of sounding mean and pedantic even mentionng it.
Writing spamku [the name often given to 17-syllable non-haiku poems] can be fun and amusing and I'm all for having a bit of fun so

ignorance is bliss
but twelve months of photographs
are worthy of praise

Your link to the wikipedia entry for haiku is excellent as it debunks that myth.

cheers now

We have a Winner!
I chose a winner of the haiku (or rather spamku, as Gerald let me know =)... it's pattern is actually 6-7-5, but since these kind of poems are not real haiku anyway, I think I should let it count. It's some very sweet little lines, and I congratulate Carlos who does the wonderful Barcelona Photoblog for writing this:

Beauty Will Long Perdure
Thanks to Your Sweet Photographs

Please mail your address to blog@moonsoleil.de, and your surprise package will be on its way in the next days. =)
Thanks a lot to all writers, I appreciate your efforts a lot! Thank you also for your kind wishes!
