Giving it away on Mother's (in Medicine) Day

Bringing family
To medical conference
At Disney World. Dude.

In honor of upcoming Mother's Day (May 13), we are hosting a Dansko scrubs giveaway (yes, the makers of your beloved clogs now makes a line of medical scrubs)!

To enter, write a haiku about how you'll be spending Mother's Day in a comment on our Facebook page. The haiku with the most "likes" wins the scrubs. (Vote for your favorite until 8 am EST on May 13). Any reader (mom or not; in medicine or not) is welcome to haiku-away.

Happy early Mother's Day! Thanks for reading.

  1. I wanted to send my haiku as Cutter instead of on facebook:

    Flying to see mom
    Bringing her grandchild for joy
    Breast cancer just found

  2. Cutter, I was just thinking of writing something silly and then read your poem...how touching! Sending the best to your mom.

  4. KC - throwing the word Dude around so does not suit you. Brings quality/enjoyment/niceness of your posts levels down.

  5. Anon,
    You're right. It's actually an illness. Dude-itis. Luckily, it's non-fatal but could cause otherwise serious posts about haiku contests to lose their necessary gravity and quality.

    Hopelessly afflicted,
    KC

    May be the last time


    @Cutter - hope the cancer diagnosis ends up treatable and manageable

    @KC - Dude, it's cool

    All say: Jump, frog, jump!

  8. Dear KC (who artfully employs many a writing style), here's a modified version of your Haiku that unfortunately Anon will not like any better...
