    oh no i looked at the wrong page for haikus! *fixes*
    Like slovenly swine
    Shoots the nursing baby dow
    Meat devoured raw
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    Hi Susan - I Love your Haiku! love the "cash registers caroling"- great image for, say Pixar Studios. I could see that in one of their movies.

    dramasmot6 - what did you do anyway? what is the next line to start with....confused?

    My grandparent's house
    Long ago was reluinquished (pardon my spelling)
    Vanished from my life

    my grandparents house, the place in my icon-thingy to the left, was sold when they were declared legally insane...

    and, of course, continuing the group haiku:

    Try some smoked vulture?
    I would really rather not
    Rabbit is better.

    rabbit is better
    as filler for a beef stew.
    Toothpick meat from teeth.

    Oh really? Well, I'll make a point to give you more.

    What do we eat next?
    Pretzels with spicy mustard?
    No, potato skins.

    Oh, why, thank you! Just don't give me compliments when I don't deserve it, okay, Uncie?

    No, potato skins
    Spring rolls with turnips, why not?
    Just count calories
    Dreams! adorations! illuminations! religions!

    Just count calories
    when you sit at the table.
    But don't digest yet.

    But a good haiku.

    Gizzards are roaring,
    Bubbling like boiling water.
    Should I out the gas?

    Hi Virgil, Some nice poems, but I did not like the rabbit ones. I used to have two bunnies. Really nasty to eat them! Meany Virgil, shame on you...cute little bunnies!

    Glad someone else got your line...

    The latter, I say
    Then I go away to think
    Of better Haiku

    Why do you say that? You're good.

    Of better haiku
    I pledge to write tonight.
    No more eating pets.

    How's that Janine?
