Your Own
St. Lou Haikus

Haikus submitted by attendees at 
the St. Louis Book Festival

A World's Fair relic
Renewed with paint and care
A Forest Park gem

I like to play harp
My compact discs are so great
They help to soothe souls

Huge Amoco sign
Ever my highway beacon
Guide my lost car home

From Chicago I
Take 55 to the Lou
Watch Cubs lose four straight
                                 -- by Kathleen Leser

Seven leaves in Fall
Blow across old Eat-Rite sign,
Brighten the small cafe
                                    -- by Andrew Limanni

Books. Books. Books. Books. Books.
Hey you! Wanna buy my book?
It's self-promotion

World's Fair pavilion
Bobblehead dolls stare at me
Hey! Meta-haiku!

A Simple Wall
By Carl E. Ramsey

Mirrors, windows, and pictures
are sources of energy
and allow a simple wall
to show us what's inside,
outside, and somewhere else.

Send us your own haikus about 
St. Louis and we'll post them!

Tell us your name, age, and what
area of St. Louis you live.
