The Infinite Haiku

[Grecian man]

snow, death-masks autumn
untill spring hides your faces
sleep now oh loved one

[Cate]

sleep now oh loved one
mornings light waits for your breath
as stars keep sentry

[lizzytysh]

as stars keep sentry
dark orange moon arises
autumn fills the sky



Thanks, D.

mickey_one ~ The previous entry's last line is supposed to be carried over to be your first line... you get another chance .

whoops! sorry, I will rejoin once I emerge from the Thick Kids' Corner. Also, it is obvious that Lion of Lions meant school massacres being traditional because you have so many of them over there. When the school doesn't allow it then the Law says that the gunman has to move to the nearest mall.

Looks like "time out" is about over for you.

Yep .

When the school doesn't allow it then the Law says that the gunman has to move to the nearest mall.

Just woke up. Looks like that may be the best time for black humour for me, since it brought an involuntary, silent laugh, in spite of myself.

Okay, "time out"'s over. Back to Infinite Haiku. Your turn, unless someone else gets there first.

Off to Thick Kids' Corner with you Lizzy. The rule being that the second line has 7 syllables.

autumn fills the sky
the shy seconds before daybreak
light is but a hope

light is butter hope
though margarine is lighter
olive oil also

Hi Jack ~

I'll go there if I must, but someone else brought this to my attention, privately. This was my explanation:

O range moon a ris es

OR

Or ange moon a ris es


LOL ~ Oh, schoot. Can you still hear me with my back turned?? Hey... I was in a hurry, alright? Had to get to the vet before they closed at Noon. I counted six ~ I tell you SIX ~ every time I counted!! Somehow, six transposed to seven in my mind, though. I thought they were awfully, magically, close to one another in length.

Not to worry. As soon as I work my way outta this corner [sometime tonight, since I have a whole new list of things to do], I'll edit it, since it won't change the first line of the next person's. Geesh! You'd think I didn't know how to count.

Olive oil also

the restaurant door
opens on a theatre
of warring couples

of warring couples
and compromise, the robin
warbles his sad song

[damellon]

warbles his sad song
as if to say, once there was
love and good times too

[lazariuk]

warbles his sad song
as if to say, once there was
love and good times too

love and good times too
equals four maidens so true
watching yon robin

[damellon]

watching yon Robin
in the hundred acre wood
I see A.A.Milne
