NooNoo's fine haiku
Perfect message, but sadly
Is missing two beats.

I'm sorry to criticize, NooNoo! As far as actual poetry goes, I doubt anybody here will come up with something better than what you have offered. You get 5.9 out of 6 instead of the perfect score ONLY because the haiku format is supposed to have seven syllables in the second line instead of five.

I'll freely admit you're a better poet than I am!

[NooNoo]

Oh Clam, I wasn't competing and I thought yours was great.

I guess thats what comes of being a straight A student in english!

The trouble with 7 syllables in the middle is you have to either use words that people have to look up in the dicitionary, or the line is too long.

So I chose to bend the format slightly.

And I bet you someone comes up with something better than me within 24 hours!

This is not a test
Or a competition thing;
Just having fun here.

Five, seven, and five
Is what you should remember
When writing haikus.

Pleases me to know
That I'm making people count
With drumming fingers.

[CreepingDeath]

sad miserable
am I by myself
think I will go
break something

ehhh crap... does that count?

I love my tech job
Microsoft is a big must
To make some money


Windrivers is here
To help us through a long day
just sit and post away

[King Grover]

haikus are so dumb,
why would someone waste their time
writing these dumb poems?
