Why haven't more people voted on this?

Thanks, Indeed, for making up this contest.  Everyone came up with some good stuff.  I had a lot of fun making haikus when I should have been working.

I know, right? 200 people will vote whether or not Rondo prefers coke to pepsi but nobody has an opinion on the best haiku about beating the lakers? come on bloggers!

Rondo: Coke? Pepsi?
200 People will vote
Haikus get no love

Draft day, Pierce's grinning.
Pain, defeat, disharmony.

I like it, and gave you a TP.  I think you've got six syllables in your first and third lines, though.

Ah yah, Pierce's can have two syllables, haha I tried to squeeze it into one!

Here's a haiku that describes what it was like for me to watch Antoine Walker.  I know his style of play was terrible and hurt the team with his Obi3 plays but...he was Mr. Celtics during his time here.

Take it to the hoop!
Drive! What the hell! Don't settle!
Swish. Fine, I'll take it.

A classical haiku must also have some reference to nature:
