Became friends for life
And the squirrels and the birds came
To sing them a song
Aww guys thanks for the explanations, but Bart's is way too technical...I should know IPA and linguistics and blah, but I find them so dry, I'm much more istinctive so having to translate something in IPA would really put me off....
Maybe I'll try to participate anyway, trying to learn from your haikus how the syllables should be (I'm good at infering things rather than using technical devices). Not now tho, I'm in a rush and that would need thinking...my brain can't make it ;)
Bart, ehm...which hints? Btw I was thinking of revising that poem and post it here... when I'll be out of this working week and be back at the lazy life of a lazy student.
Am I interrupting again? Last time, I promise. (Maybe...;))

ps. Koa: you can also just pronounce the line and count the vowels you HEAR, using your fingers... I am looking forward to your read your contributions. And besides: the allusions I made refer to that poem of yours, starting with the line
Come l'albero impassibile

What sweet Canadian Muse
Has tickled our ears?
Has tickled our ears?
You mean the Ice *****? Oh yes,
She comes from the North
She comes from the North
To freeze our grins, make us ice
And then to crack us
And then to crack us
She is side-splitting you know
And she has a whip.
And she has a whip
To strain her horse when needed
And gallop away
And gallop away
Well, not exactly. The whip
Has many uses.
And gallop away
To chase her tresses, all gone
blown off by the wind
(sorry, I just cut 10 inches of my hair)
Blown of by the wind
That inclines kamikaze
But don't do it twice
But don't do it twice
with an unfamiliar word
the brain gets confused :P
the brain gets confused
if small things suddenly mean
something different
