I Need Your Help

Alright folks, I know my blog readership isn't high, but those of you who do read it are marvelously funny and quite literate. I need you to stretch your haiku writing skills for me. Well, not for me but for the clients at my place of work.

A grant-making foundation is offering several thousand dollars for the best haiku written by a health and human service agency. Aside from being the most fantastically short grant application ever, this could be a wonderful departure from what I normally write. In exchange for my eternal gratitude and knowing that you've provided months of safe supportive housing for women and children, won't you consider writing a housing/homelessness related haiku for me?

In case you are rusty, it's 5-7-5. I do reserve the right to submit your haiku to the contest, should I like it. :) I will be sure to nofity you if you are the winner of my contest.

What sort of time frame? I can polish up the poetry writing skills. As many details as possible will be appreciated.

Your literate and hilarious Mom :)
