To dessert myths
Requires a strong back bone.
Then it is over.

Yuk. Sorry.

Hi Virgil, did I spell desert wrong - meant the place with an abundance of sand? Nice if I could spell....

Probably. I'm such a lousy speller that I wasn't sure and I just copied your misspelling. ;)

Man of La Mancha no more.

Slivers of gold dust

Mama was very mad.

Mama was very mad
Papa was fumming within
All alone I hid

Cool!

All alone I hid
Underneath Mama's big bed.
Hide and seek tonight.

Hide and seek tonight
I kill the child and then hide
Cops do the seeking

Virgil - Love that!

Solitaire in bed
The sheets so stagnant and cold
Your heart lies still here

Il Penseroso

Your heart lies still here,
the poet's frenzy provides
no feed to your past.
12-03-2006, 12:37 AM
Janine

no feed to your past
your world a stranger to one
I who knew you best

I who knew you best
Knew you would forget the doe.
This is where it ends.

This is where it ends
The moment of truth and lies
The answer's with you
12-03-2006, 01:05 AM
Virgil

The answer's with you.
Do you even know the question,
you who speaks to flies?

Silly last line, but what the heck. :D
12-03-2006, 01:21 AM
Janine

well it is a challenge that's for sure.....

you who speaks to flies?
perhaps they commune with worms
the grave lies open wide

Sorry.:lol:

The grave lies open wide
And has a voice of its own.
It whispers softly.

Good night Janine. Perhaps tomorrow. :)

It whispers softly
subtle electricity

Marriage is trying
Each year a challenge more steep
My heart is crying

Hi Reisa, did you get my email? Glad to see you again but I am going to depart soon. Watching a movie - in between.
12-03-2006, 01:28 AM
Janine

Nite Virgil.....
12-03-2006, 01:31 AM
Janine

whoops - where did I pick up that line Marriage is trying. Thought that was Reisa's h. must have had wrong page. Wait did you revise and change your Haiku, R?
12-03-2006, 01:33 AM
Riesa

Hi Janine, yes you are too quick...I self edited the Marriage is Trying bit...:lol:
poor husband.

good night to you...see you soon.

hungry now for more

I don't know about others, but I really like to read from one creative haiku to the next without all the chat. I believe there is a chat forum....not trying to be mean. This was just a response to comments after the God of Haiku two or three pages earlier.
12-03-2006, 02:35 AM
Laindessiel

I understand, B. But it can't be helped. We'll try to avoid it. Although compliments in Haiku are always welcome! :)

Hungry now for more
Krispy Kreme and chips and nuts.
Oh! Whatta diet.
