Christmas time is nice
but I'll tell you a secret
santa isn't real :-(

 

[momcat1]

Christmas is coming
I can't wait to see what's waiting
Under the tree for me

(Hope it's a Nexus!)

 

[Monkeydomid]

When cold the winds blow,
And comes the white snow,
Then look out for good Saint Phil(l).
He comes in a sleigh
From miles, miles away,
And vanishes very goodwill.

 

[Daniel Kozman]

Holiday Haiku?
How about merry Christmas
And happy new year!

Ice trees hymn hot joy,
bells shine hush holiday hope,
snow! white hapiness.

---------
Typically - but by no means always - English haiku:

are three lines long
either are 17 syllables long, especially with lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables (the traditional form);[1][a][2][3][4] or are about 10–14 syllables long,[5][6] with the second line usually the longest. Some poets want their haiku to be expressed in one breath[7][8][9]
are about, or mention, an aspect of nature[10][1]
make a quirky or surprising observation about some fleeting experience - usually an otherwise ordinary or trivial-seeming one. Often it expresses a sudden insight
often juxtapose two things - e.g. something large and something small, something natural and something man-made, or two unexpectedly similar things
are often divided into two sections, usually at the end of the first or second line, and indicated by a punctuation mark, broken layout (e.g. extra space between words or lines), grammatical break, or caesura (similar to the Japanese kire)[1][11]
are in the present tense
are impressionistic, leaving much to the imagination[12][13][14]
are contemplative or wistful
do not rhyme
use elliptical 'telegram style' syntax, avoiding words such as 'and', 'but', 'like'
use little or no punctuation, sometimes with unusual layout in place of punctuation (e.g. indented lines, extra space between words or lines)
do not start lines with capital letters
use adjectives sparingly
do not use abstract nouns
do not have a title.

A new Nexus in my hand.
Singing carol lyrics.
Not just humming along.

Tablet is dying.
It's about time to upgrade.
Thank you Santa Phil!

And the goose is getting fat
Sung by the muppets

Do stockings fit such a thing
Christ is in Christmas
