Oi, please come and compose your Olympics haikus here (we may rustle up a prize for the best)

[HellenicGamesMumsnet]

Hello.

Having rofled our way through your Bradley-Wiggins-inspired poetry thread, we thought we'd start the Official Mumsnet Olympics Haiku Thread.

Please do come and post your best haikus about the Games, as and when inspiration strikes.

We may well have a prize or two for the best offerings....

Men's Hundred Metres
Is the blue riband event
The Lightning #Bolt Won

Stretch and point your arm
Pull other arm across chest
That's the lightning bolt!

Hidden from our sight
The drugs tester awaits all
That man takes the piss

MirandaGoshawk "The last line is so awful - Please think of a better one!"

How about:

There was a young lady named Jess
She gave us her personal best
She can leap throw and run
Her tum's like a drum
And she looks very nice in her vest!

Any better? ok ok perhaps not...

"Great Britain takes gold!"
We've heard that much more often
than we expected.

Usain Bolt, cheetah
Run in less than 10 seconds
Short attention span

Apples - thanks for trying! (Have a Bronze for that!)

Have thought of one:

..And now she wears Gold on her chest.

Silence in the stadium, waiting
Glimmer of gold flashing
Photo finish!

Thunder BOLT, Lightening
Very, very frightening
Mama Mia - GOLD

Lightning - DOH!! so 2 syllables not 3

A Bolt for the door
Is what my Labrador makes
When I kick his arse.

Disclaimer. I don't have a dog, nor do I condone cruelty to animals.

Isn't it crazy
The greatest sporting event
Makes couch potatoes.

What's that you sayin'
You sayin' Usain insane?
Belting bolting Bolt!

Cav's twinkling eyes and
his stuttering punditry
Wins gold on mumsnet

I wish we had a
Cute remote-controlled Mini
To bring the toys back

Usain Bolt I saw
your bum very close up in the
stadium, last night.

Or - which scans better imho:

Last night Usain Bolt
I saw your bum very close up
in the stadium

Who says
White Men Cant Jump?
They can on horses!

Tight little panties
Stretched over pert youthfulness
Let it rain medals

Ride ride ride your bike
Quickly around the circuit
Merrily to Gold

All hail team GB:
Shoot, sail, swim, jump, ride, row, run!
Golden Olympics

One sport is not enough
The Brownlee boys prefer three
Gold and Bronze are theirs.

More faithful to the original format

Summer in London
A monarch gleamed of diamonds
Let it rain medals

Toddler son glimpses
Athletes bursting into sprint,
And shouts, ?walk; don?t run!?

In london its bad
when medal winners
are on bikes. Like Commuters
