Haiku 9

[gbaughma]

I have realized
That I have a knack for this;
Writing the Haiku
---------------------------
You asked for a page
I gave you a 404
Isn't the web great?
---------------------------
For I equals 1
While I is less than 7
Increment the I

Oh for goodness sake!
Can we all just get a grip
and stop this nonsense?

Of all haiku dared
THAT one is so clean and spare
Almost makes me cry

My dinner today
is curry and curly fries
I'm going to stink

The lights are on but nobody's home, my elevator doesn't go to the top. I'm not playing with a full deck, I've lost my marbles. Barenaked Ladies - Crazy

I dont understand
How I should write these things
But I will try hard

Sixty days until
I see the light at the end
An oncoming train.

Four days off I have!
I will enjoy them a lot
Until Monday comes.

This one is from my third-grader, written for a school assignment (and slightly edited by me to eliminate couple of extra syllables):

Sharks are wild and blue
Fish and people hide from sharks
They eat meat for lunch

 

[strongm]

It's Christmas again!
At last I get some time off.
Thank goodness for that.

 

[tcsbiz]

It snows once again.
I have to shovel again.
I will cry again.

--------

I shoveled again.
My muscles are sore again.
I am crying one more time.

 

[fumei]

Gumbo takes two days
to get better? When do you
eat such timely treats?

It is the twenty-third;
My shopping is not complete.
Bah. I'll have a beer.

There once was a man
From Nantucket, this is true
I can't finish this.

-------------------------------------------------------
Gandalf is my cat.
He is gray, and short-tailed, too.
He's named for the mage.

-------------------------------------------------------
Phydeaux is a cat
Whose name sounds like a dog's name
Spelled F. I. D. O.
-------------------------------------------------------

(I had to write a couple for my cats... I mean, why not, right?)

My larder has cooled

I have cats too, well
I have three cats and two dogs

This one brought a tear to my eye. It's so poignant and yet...ephemeral. *does the poetry reading finger-snap thing*

My dogs are quite thick
But one is being very loud
Beagles are howly
---------------------------
One god is real deaf
But she is so very cute
that we all love her
---------------------------
I'm working at home
It is quite late to do this
But I am quite mad
---------------------------

so, I'll stop now - cuddle the deaf cute quiet JRT first, and then tackle the beagle.

<off topic> She's actually a beagle crossed with a JRT - now thats stubborn like it was an olympic sport... but she is 6 or 7 yrs old (rescued - we don't know exactly) and she looks exactly like a beagle puppy. Aww...<leaves now before digression becomes the better part of valour>
