A haiku thread? Haiku is that?

[Cookie]

Dogs sleep anywhere
On the table, on the chair
Wake them if you dare

First haiku I ever wrote. Still have the piece of paper from school with one of those generic "well done" stickers on it lying around somewhere.

[Momiji]

You need to learn to count.

Haikus are about weather - 7 syllables
from what I have heard before - 7 syllables
but this one is not! - 5 syllables.

And while I know that other forms are acceptable,

Use five syllables
then with seven syllables
finish with five more

Here is a set of four that I wrote up

Flowers falling down
Caught in the winds calm embrace
Over a mute lake.

The willows weep green
The flower weeps in deep pink
The heart in blood red.

From the eye above
To the smile far down below
Serenity’s love.

With natures balance
Just like that of Yin and Yang
Beauty comes of two.

[The Unknown Guru]

Rune Hauge
Norwegian agent
for the great sport of football.
He is quite obscure.

Wolfgang Cutler
Character in Oz,
Quite the douchebag, I have heard.
Damned Aryan Union.

[Madame Adequate]

Reignac-sur-Indre
Small commune in central france
Nothing else to say

[Rantz]

Such a manly man
Ernest William Lyons Holt
The man loved his fish!

[Sir Lancealot]

1999
June Bremen state election
Dr. Scherf wins it.

[Blue Harvest]

Dolentrean rocks
Has he mentioned he's awesome?
Quite good looking too

Flowers falling down

The flower weeps in deep pink
The heart in blood red.

From the eye above
To the smile far down below
Serenity’s love.

With natures balance
Just like that of Yin and Yang
Beauty comes of two.

Wasn't that the love poem you wrote for Kaycee?

Some competition
for the poem DD wrote
for his sweet resha.

Oh resha can you not see?
That we live in a land of misery.
People suffering left and right.
It just isn't right.
But one of the worst lives is mine.
I suffer daily and every time.
I cry for freedom I cry for help.
Yet my calls are not answered.
But you Resha you are my light.
So shine on my life and let me fight.
And we shall go to lands unknown.
Hand in hand with a lovers bond.
Do you wish this or do you not?
Do you want to save me?
If you do then take my hand.
And my misery shall be banned.
So come Resha do you accept me?
As your soul mate to make life an ease.
Or shall you banish my heart to misery.

[scrumpleberry]

Highly lolable
Pitiful little demon
Never gets a break

[KentaRawr!]

That's 19 syllables, Kentarou.

My haiku is done
Too many syllables it has
My dreams are crushed now.

[Yar]

Aren't haiku supposed to be about nature?

The forest stands tall,
but it won't be there for long,
arson is coming.

Delicious tuna,
I could eat it every day,
wait, this is dolphin.

Ack! A bear attack!
No, you can't have my sandwich!
Where is my bear spray? ;_;

[Denmark]

[q=Bowser]Like the moon over
the day, my genius and brawn
are lost on these fools.[/q]

Seven syllables.
Before that, five syllables.
Also, after that.

R. "Ringo" Starkey
Not a very good drummer
But he got lucky

[Momiji]

That's 19 syllables, Kentarou.

My haiku is done
Too many syllables it has
My dreams are crushed now.

18 syllables.

[KentaRawr!]

Haikus are too tough
The syllable count is odd
and my brain hurts lots!
