Haikus make one think some.
But scotch may make you fall down.
Your brain may hurt more.
Melissa Herndon said:
Ah, you make me smile.
It was really good and worthwhile.
May I have another?

Too much scotch is bad
Moderation is key
Haiku finished now
landshark77 said:
Haiku is the best
No need for rhyme or rhythm
Poems for dummies!

One more hiaku; focus: me.
Inflate my ego once more please.
And count carefully!

Yes, you got it down,
It was Holiday themed too!
Nice job Candyman.
A reply in more than one Haiku
Is Haiku one or two?
I have been counting it one.
Help me please, master.
I would share with you,
My simple counting method,
But you would laugh hard!
You are good at this.
I wish I got one a day.
Bring a pen next time.
Question: S N L?
Did you “steal” the above from
Saturday Night Live?

Count the syllables
Haiku is definitely
Counted as a two.
Answer: Yes I did
"Landshark" is a famous skit
From the olden days
Melissa Herndon said:
O.K., do not laugh
but here is my counting way:
(I know I'm a dork)
Place your hand under chin
Each time your chin hits your hand
as you speak count: one
Now apply this way
for when you say the word Haiku
Chin hits hand only once.
Melissa Herndon said:
I do not recall,
that skit of which you speak of.
Huh, showing your age?

LOL
That's the way my grammer school teacher taught us syllables.
Why am I so mysteriously draw to this random collection of Japanese prose?
Lol
That is where I learned
From my grammer school teacher
I am simple, huh?
You did not know it,
but you could be a poet
so try it once more.

I've figured it out
While prose is enlightening
I'm here for the chicks
