beavers, maple syrup, geese, and tim horton’s: five haiku for canada’s 142nd birthday.

hockey is our sport
strange, burnt coffee is our drink
one out of two ain’t bad, tim.
it’s not that cold here
but staying warm is easy
your igloo or mine?
beavers and geese
are our national mascots
both fat and crabby.
we share our talent
our artists know no borders
keep celine dion!
we’re chill patriots
but don’t mock our accents, please
or else: ‘take off, eh.’
