Hi bluelala [love your name :) ]
Welcome to LitNet!! Yes, sometimes the meaning of the haiku can be a little hard to understand, but, so long as you follow the 5 syllables or 'beats' for the first line 7 syllables for the second and 5 for the final line, that is all you need to do :D . I'll start a new one.

Hi Paige 19. A haku has a structured format of 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables.
Oh, okay. Did not realize we were following strict form, should have checked the thread beginning, duh.
In that case I should have said:
"almost remembers the barn"
Got it now, though. Thanks, alakungfu.

Gah. Too many syllables. Po-em, not pome! I'm worse than those people who say liberry.
Should be:
start one more poem.
SO:
start one more poem
to while away the minutes
