The exercise:

Write two haiku about: a giveaway.

So what's being given away then? The bike? Did the cycling prove too much for your knees, so they gave up and your feet and calves dropped off halfway home, causing a minor traffic pileup? Or have you just decided to start leaving calling cards at the scenes of your assassinations to tease the investigating police force? :)

Giveaway
"Free to a good home".
I don't think your children are
Good as giveaways.

Unusual kids
Rescued from 'odd' summer camps
Err... give them away.

Greg - I'm sure there was something specific that inspired this one. Give me a second. Oh! Right.

So the old Board Chair photos were taken down from the Board Room walls a while back, like before I joined the RDOS, and they've been sitting in boxes. The person dealing with them finally was taking the photos out for scanning and possibly mailing to the former Chairs or their families and needed to get rid of the frames. So they were being given away for free and I snagged a couple so that I could put up a few photos at my desk.

Hah, remembered!

For the record, my children would make excellent giveaways. Some days.
