Here's an old sage's Holiday Haiku for 2009. No, am not one of those against calling it Christmas Haiku. It's just that Holiday Haiku is alliterative. .... Hey, but wait, so is Hanukkah Haiku. And Kwanzaa Haiku, almost. Whatever! "Holiday" it is.Contributor: Michael ThompsonPublished: Dec 16, 2009

After Indy, there's
A need for peace and quiet
