Carpmas Poetry

A Carpmas Poem by Julie

Let me set the scene: Dark, smoky room, goateed audience (the men anyway…), lotsa finger-snapping and nodding in approval.

And try to follow me one this one: American Jerry, writes a Japanese Haiku in Swedish, for his Canadian friend Charmaine, so that she may better enjoy her imaginary holiday based loosely on a Czech custom. He also provided the photo of the gummy-fish used in this post, which meant an unexpected and hurried trip to the candy store. Thanks Jer! And Happy Carpmas!

Translation: Christmas fish like jelly/ No, I do not want lutfisk/ but Swedish fish (the candy)

I concur.
