can we have a Haiku thread? Pleeeease? It'll bring in the young blood, honest

[Fllightthebluetouchpaper]

I just wrote a very neat informatory one on another thread but have, er, forgotten it now. You lot are way better than me.

Topic for today:

underpants.

mixing with black sock
turns grey of november sky
once bright white knickers

....another interweb site that I frequent has also been highlighting the joys of the haiku today.

I am feeling ecumenical, and have stolen one posted elsewhere.

(clears throat)

I wish I could fly

Way up in the sky but I

Can't you can't I can't

.....and who among us could disagree with such fine sentiments.

Crusty socks await
unwary hands in clothes pile.
Would rather Mumsnet.

November rain falls
on unregarded pants snatched
and blown afar. Sod it.

Kibbutz: laundry.
Precise and silent, she folds pants.
She survived Auschwitz.

So beautiful Bink.

And Goth. In fact yours brought a tear to my eye.

Sputnik I hope you have got your pants back.
