Haiku cafe
 
Welcome, one and all!
To Nissa's Haiku cafe!
Please, take a cushion.

Remember one thing,
Count your syllables neatly,
five, seven, and five.

The Cheshire Cat 02-15-2010 02:13 PM

This is rather hard.
I wonder if this will work.
I'll sit for now, k?

Despite being slow,
This thread looks quite nice and neat.
Ugh, haiku's hate me.

Taviren 02-15-2010 02:27 PM

Well this is quite neat
an interesting idea
perhaps I will try

akinmytua 02-15-2010 02:27 PM

I can't do this well.
My skills are so dang rusty.
I can still try though.

Sigh. I can't count well.
This is harder than I thought.
Neat idea though!

I'll take a cushion,
A purple one would be nice.
I think I've caught on!

linxe 02-15-2010 02:28 PM

i dont get it D: what do we do here?

Taviren 02-15-2010 02:29 PM

you speak in haiku
count out your syllables please
five then seven then five


How are you today?
I am doing well myself.
It's too early though.

----------

On Twitter I do have
A friend who tweets in haiku
He'd be good at this

Unfortunately,
He is not on Menewsha.
We'll manage without.

The Cheshire Cat 02-15-2010 02:37 PM


Yay! More people came!
This is interesting - Yup.
Do you understand?

I'm just chilling here.
I went to see Lovely Bones.
It was okay...sorta.

Your friend sounds real cool.
I really stink at this stuff.
I need some practice.

Taviren 02-15-2010 02:39 PM

Well now, what is this?
Where have all the poets gone?
Is Tavi alone?

Yay! I'm not alone.
Hello, Lady Cheshire Cat.
Your haikus are great!

Oh, but your second!
the last line was a bit off.
Had six syllables.

The Lovely Bones, huh?
I haven't seen that movie.
Only the previews.

Nissa 02-15-2010 02:48 PM

Haikus are my thing
I even run a workshop
They are really fun!

I am in and out,
My children are now awake,
but gone, I am not.

linxe 02-15-2010 02:51 PM

Knerd 02-15-2010 02:51 PM

Too early right now

Haiku are easy
But sometimes they make no sense

Just remember this
Syllables five, seven, five,
and you will be fine.

linxe 02-15-2010 03:15 PM

Nissa 02-15-2010 03:26 PM

It's no problem linxe
I always do what I can
to spread haiku love
:vicky:

Lacquer 02-15-2010 04:25 PM

I do love Haiku
it's both simple and complex
such a thing is nice.

Woke up rather early
but I have to go out so
it worked out anyway.

Nissa 02-15-2010 04:57 PM

I woke up early
beat the kids awake for once
had some mommy time.

FadedSky 02-15-2010 05:29 PM

Testing one, two, three.
I wonder where this will lead.
Anyway, good bye.

Nissa 02-15-2010 05:50 PM

You're leaving so soon?
You have only just arrived
How about some cake?

linxe 02-15-2010 06:06 PM

yummy i love cake
it really is the best thing
for a snowed in day

Nissa 02-15-2010 06:10 PM

Cake is always good
and chocolate chip cookies
I really can't choose.

We have angels food,
chocolate and devils food,
and red velvet, yum!

Huffie 02-15-2010 06:12 PM

Would it be alright
For me to join in, dearies?
I'm no writer but,

This seems a fun thread,
And I'm quite nervous about
Posting around here! :oops:

Nissa 02-15-2010 06:17 PM

Please join us Huffie,
Leave the nervousness outside,
We're a friendly bunch. :)

Huffie 02-15-2010 06:22 PM

Oh that's good to know!
I'm not so good at chatting
But I'll try my best. :D

My dad writes haiku
Haibun, too, he's very good!
Not like me, haha!
