EQII Holiday Haiku Giveaway  

To celebrate Frostfell ZAM has acquired THIRTY-TWO new and exciting Festive Gingerbread Pet item codes to give away and FOUR Station Cash codes for grand prizes! All you have to do is bring us your best Norrathian-themed Holiday Haiku and you could be a winner!

It's been ages since we've had a haiku contest, so let's review: Haiku is a mode of poetry that has 17 syllables in three lines, arranged 5-7-5. The first line has five syllables, the second seven, and the last five. That's over-simplifying a bit for Japanese haiku, but this is Norrath, so let's keep it simple. There's a nice guide over at WikiHow. Examples:

Nathan is a brat "Have you ever seen a gnoll?" Stuck tongue made me laugh Sleigh bells are ringing Tserrina and Mayong kiss Under mistletoe
