What are you counting
Old West Ham fan in Holland
And why count backwards

never give up, never slow down
never grow old, never ever die young

Re: Haiku! whats the rules?

Well, backwards to you
Is forward to the elders
Thirty-two baloo

RIP Iron Man

Rock On and keep the Faith

That damn urge to rhyme

Black knobs or gold knobs,
That´s the question that led to
disaster for me.

Re: Haiku! whats the rules?

I have two dogs too
I also have a parrot
Never bite the pets

They are way too cute
They totally love and trust
Maybe my best friends

They are always there
Always happy to see me
Always make me smile

Re: Haiku! whats the rules?

My friend Vicki's bird
bit, not the hand which feeds him -
but her lip instead

Lower lip pierced clean
by the beak of her loved one
Ouch - that had to hurt

I was bitten once
in the face by my Mo Mo
Scared, scarred, but forgave

He was a BIG boy
duffle bag with legs, Steve said
I still miss him so

His sister Daisy
was the reincarnation
of Chicken Little

My pets are my kids
Life would be unbearably
lonely without them

I know someone who
just lost her beloved dog
and you know her too

Grief kills all the joy
Time helps to heal most of it
I can't give her that

From their little souls
Love flows out effortlessly
and fills our heartaches

The loss of that love
brings exquisitely sharp pain
'Til we love again

I know that Joe could play one of those kid's guitars with the plastic strings and make it sound good-
Bill S.
