Haiku Revisited

August in the glen
My bovine friend lows softly
‘Hi Coo,’ I murmur

Can you do better? I think you can!

All topics allowed. Why not turn what you are doing right now into a haiku? (17 syllables, 3 lines of 5,7,5)

All are at home now
But the tea is not ready yet
We are getting hungry

The plump wood pigeons
Roosting on my arbour roof
Are singing high coos

Eating my dinner
Avocado egg on toast
I feel so hipster

How will we stop this?
The terrorists are home grown
they live among us

Thank you for all your contributions!

'Damn, you look dodgy!'
Said Boris. 'And so do you!'
Retorted the dam.

Just eaten pasta
Tomato and basil sauce
Has indigestion

I am drinking Coke.
It is cold
My teeth are crying

Flying to Tokyo
Japanese air space is full
We’re in a high queue

2018SoFarSoGreat · 06/08/2019 19:57

Will always miss you
three years, gone so fast, so slow
feels like yesterday

Lying in my bed
Reading lots of mumsnet threads
And planning Christmas

Redexpat you sound very organised.

That's a touching one 2018SoFarSoGreat. It's amazing what can be done with 17 syllables.

Like the lateral thinking in the 'high coos' and the 'high queues' too!

Limericks and quatrains also welcome.

Oh woe, the working parent
Tis a cuntish time
