Winner Winner Poetry Winner

Congratulations are in order. The Murfie crew has chewed over all the haiku entries from our “music-themed poetry contest”—and we’ve finally picked a winner! The winning haiku is…drumroll, please…

Out here in the fields
“I’m gonna do that one day”
Guitarist for hire

That lovely piece of poetry was penned by Murfie member Brian. For his poetic work, Brian will bag $50 of Murfie store credit plus a fresh Murfie T-shirt. Now, you’re probably thinking—I wish I won that swag. Do not fear; stay tuned here on our blog for the next shot at your free giveaway!

Giveaway: Make a Murfie Haiku

Ahhh, giveaways—it’s been awhile, huh? So here’s your chance to enter a Murfie Giveaway today, ‘cos there’s no day like today! The human being who writes the most awesome haiku poem (English style) about music, as judged by the crew at Murfie, wins $50 of store credit AND a custom Murfie T-shirt. Heads-up: 50 bucks will take you very far on Murfie—lotsa and lotsa albums are only $1!

As a refresher, an English-style haiku consists of 3 lines of 17 syllables total (5, 7, 5). The subject matter simply has to be MUSIC—whether it be about the first CD you owned, your favorite band, the music you are embarrassed to love, etc. The winning haiku will be published here on our blog.
