1/.
Arthur can’t haiku
Suffering from writer’s block
Note signed by his Mum
2/.
Fred Flintstone asking
If the dinosaurs believe
The Creationists
3/.
In my Autumn years
Ice age eroding hairline
Will I see Summer?
4/.
I’m in the river
Crossing the bridges before
Reaching them again
5/.
Think outside the box
As it’s only two inches
Wide you have no choice

Thanks for suggesting my 'fat waiter' discussion--I thought we couldn't do suggestions anymore--how does that work if say I want to suggest this post of yours?

@GreatMartin you can suggest other people's posts all you wish - you are just not allowed to suggest your own posts which is what many were doing

@arthurchappell Yes but what happened to the suggest icon? :O) Hey I am tech deprived--I need things spelled out!
Oh wait I just saw the suggest icon under your post--OKAY!

I think I would fail miserably at haiku-ing if I ever try.

it's easier than it looks. It just involves counting syllables. Cat = one syllable caterpillar = 4 syllables cat-her-pill-her - strict format haiku should be non-alliterative and refer to one of the four seasons too but as you can see many writers just have fun with them.

as always, your haiku amuse me, I can no longer say I hate them, Oh I hate most of them, but now have to admit liking a few.
