Root vegetable haiku -- are you up to the challenge?

in asian restaurants
carrots carved like roses --
why aren't they tasty?

carrots are tasty
I really like to eat them
they go in my face

roasted potatoes
with parsnips and red red beets
make me so happy

Recipe haiku... wow.

Yams in the springtime,
though I think they're imported --
cooked with bourbon, mmmm.

ok, so maybe it's a cheat using mmm for a syllable...
