Congrats all!
Not really, but we are counting in the D.H.Lawrence thread, just by the posts and we are nearly up to another milestone - heading towards 4000 posts and in that discussion thread, we don't write a few lines; so it does count for more.Quote:

PS: my last Haiku is on the previous page - 1000.
I agree. This is a good one, mazHur.Quote:

Thank you for the 'moonbeam' idea, Janine. And congrats to all for 1000 memorable posts. I wrote haikus a lot last summer and fall, but fell of the wagon, so to speak, when I got busy with school. It's nice to be back.
try to ride it out
this is no ordinary
horse but a unicorn.
horse but a unicorn
make one wish, grab hold, and fly,
oh, beauty, with me
oh, beauty, with me
at the helm and you on bow
the ocean is ours
the ocean is ours
vast reaches go forever
there is no end near
There is no end near
to the darkness that prevades
far beyond the light
far beyond the light
we sail dark tormented seas
as hands tremble, touch
As hands tremble, touch
your breathless, cold, bloodless flesh
my beautiful corpse
My beautiful corpse
Sullied by the wind and rain
Please bury me now.
please bury me now
right next to you, deep under
a down comforter
a down comforter
hypocrite who hugging, frowns
Cheer up? I'm not fooled... ;)
cheer up? I'm not fooled...
The end of the world is nigh
chirrup sings the wren
chirrup sings the wren
Ow-out of luck stings the bee
sound bytes love nature
sound bytes love nature
turning twilight to magic
bird-song symphony
bird-song symphony
held choir of cadenced soloes
head of the dog's age
head of the dog's age
sonorous melodious
like ukulele!
like ukelele!
sad hopeful instruments call -
but birds may reply
but birds may reply
in their sweet encrypted notes
hard to understand.
Hard to understand.
Hard to write. Hard to convey.
The birds are sleeping.
The birds are sleeping
no harm in waking them up
they havn't been fed!
they haven't been fed
today's ration of love songs
which, like worms, nourish
which, like worms, nourish
but the appetite ends not
yearns for more and more!
yearns for more and more
to strum the string that binds us
pluck from air great love
pluck from air great love
but in doing that be good
to reciprocate
to reciprocate?
not a love which runs off like
water beads on glass
water beads on glass
attract a love thirsty bird
give her a new life.
give her a new life
found in unlikely places
everlasting hope
everlasting hope
will last until one does not
let's hope for the best.
let's hope for the best
for sunny weather and me
holding tight to you
holding tight to you
I cannot let go of what
could've been and should've been
could've been and should've been
the music goes round and round
theme of the courthouse
Theme of the courthouse.
serve and volley back and forth
netted! No escape
netted! No escape.
we chirp and flutter. Feathers
waft beautifully down.
waft beautifully down
kissing the contours of whoofs
like fingers in hair
