Haikus!

The Phi Beta Kappa Book Club on facebook is having a contest for the best haiku written about a book. (More info here: http://www.pbk.org/home/FocusNews.aspx?id=796)

Here are the ones I entered -- please share what all of you come up with! :)

Atonement for her,
Their secret, her assumption,
She makes the ending

Our first impression
In The Sound and the Fury --
Time flows to and fro

Louisa put some
Of herself, some ideals in
Her Little Women

Floating on the sea,
So many faces, stories,
Mansfield's Ship of Fools

Many voices merge
Telling of their Africa
Poisonwood Bible

As I Lay Dying --
Taking the casket across
the land, together.
