      Has anybody ever written a haiku?? I’ve written a few…

      Stars dotting the sky
      Moonlight shining down at me
      Shooting stars fly by
      (My very first haiku 🙂 )

      Mom bought me white shoes
      I wore them to summer camp
      They ain’t white no more

      Dreary, long-drawn rain
      Whispering its secrets to
      The listening earth

      Here is my Haiku
      Wait, that wasn’t the first line!
      Let me start over

      For those of you who don’t know, a haiku is a three-line poem with five syllables on the first line, seven on the second line, then five again on the third line

      You can pronounce it however you want.

        @dekreel Hey, not bad! I’m not sure I have ever written one, but they sure look fun to experiment with. 🙂

          You all will like this one. 😉

          Cream of cow enchanted
          Snowy ball made in realms above
          Ice cream of joy!

            I’ve never really written haikus outside of what was required for my writing class last semester…I had to submit a few for peer review and I got an A on that assignment, so I guess that’s good?

              @catwing Kicking myself because I can’t find the book I had written haikus in and can’t remember them

              I love Haikus. They’re so fun! The last one is hilarious! 😀

              Bonus points to anyone who knows where the following one is from:

              Oooh, my aching back
              Might as well call workman’s comp
              It’s thrown out again.

              I also love limericks. 😀

                    Dreams like a podcast
                    Downloading truth in my ears,
                    They tell me cool stuff.

                      @daeus nice, you forgot to add chocolate or raspberries to it 😉 does everyone round here really like raspberries or is it an inside joke I’ve yet to catch on to?

                          @ingridrd That sounds like something Apollo would say. Is it from Trials of Apollo?

                                @dekreel Awesome! Those are great. Nice that they don’t have to rhyme. 😉

                                @salome01w4g
                                I love raspberries! And ice cream and chocolate and, sorry everyone, coffee. Are there any other coffee traitors on here? ‘Fess up!
