Room full of physics
Pale postures laughing at me
Gravity takes sides . . .

          --Michael Wasson

(Winner of the 2010 Bowling Haiku)

Smelly shoes to tie
Long alleys, Budweiser balls
Suddenly, a strike!

          --Sean

It is time for spring
Would that I could enjoy
Time for pins to fall, damn it!

          --Loren

Ball drifts right, returns
Sliding toward upright pins –
Stirke!  Consummation.

          --Sariban

Ten pins down, alright!
. . . during the whole entire game?
Should have used bumpers.

          --Dani

Bowl pins down said lane
Strike spare some one has to lose
Your turn to bowl now

          --John

I’m an “A” student
But physics is my weak spot
Bowling is the proof.

          --Sam

Bowling is war, too
One giant black cannonball
Ten uniformed men

                   --Chris
