The Titanium "Haiku"

[loveit]

Most guys are engineering type of people. They don't rhyme. They build. :nana:

I am not a guy
But a woman who likes lights
Maybe I'm a freak.

OK, maybe I was sleeping that day in school (or in shop class), but aren't these poems supposed to rhyme? :thinking:

Traditionally, no. I do not believe that haiku generally rhyme. They are quite subtle, and are only "poems" in the sense that there are constraints placed upon the meter (not constraints, exactly...but I digress), and follow a 5-7-5 syllable pattern.

Haiku doesn't rhyme
Unless you make it do so.
It is optional.

With five seven five
Syllable lines, it is hard
To find any rhyme.

NICE!

I am not a guy
But a woman who likes lights
Maybe I'm a freak.

Here on CPF
That makes you far from freakish
It makes you a catch!

Smokelaw is correct
In Haiku definition.
It is so simple.

My husband would say,
"How much for that McGizmo?"
I rarely answer.

Here on CPF
My light fetish is a plus
This is a great place!

The new Ti haiku
My credit card is ready
Brilliant Master Don!

Hope to catch the wave
Whales must have been too far out
Next week got here quick!

Looking forward to tomorrow afternoon... will be checking in regularly. Really, my boss is understanding. I know, ugh. No haiku since high school.

I'm looking at some of your post counts, and feel like the new guy on the block. Worry not, if I am fortunate enough, it will have a good home.

Titanium wave
mesmerizes the senses
wise moon only smiles

 

[FRANKVZ]

On my birthday you launch the wave and I am . You are a cruel cruel man Don McLeish :nana:

Now excuse me as I must go sell some lights!

Goatizzle is here
Viewing best thread of the year
Wishing for more dough

 

[loveit]

The inspiration
For this light has spread throughout
The dimly lit world!
:candle:

The Haiku will make
The whole world a brighter place
I'm so excited!


I love the new look
Of the ribbed titanium.
What could be better?
:shrug:

:bow:

Before the Haiku
Lights bow in adoration
Struck by its beauty

Loveit's haiku's rule
And stand above all the rest
Genius at work here:thumbsup:

Don wears his Speedo's,
Build's lights, frollicks in the surf
His head wears no hair:devil:

:welcome:

 

[scout24]

Hey Goatee-
Being folicularly challenged is a sign of an inspired genius! The speedo thing, i'm just not sure....

 

[McGizmo]

In light of 5-7-5 (rules :nana: )


To quench desire
A fresh horizon to view
I give you haiku

It's not a poem
Its a bloody light you twit
But the whales do sing

[PoliceScannerMan]

Goatee is always
Quick to pull a crack on Don
No light for you, Bill

 

[brucec]

To Don, I plead thee
For next light creation's name
Sonnet please name not

 

[loveit]

To Don, I plead thee
For next light creation's name
Sonnet please name not

I'll write that poem!
If this new light has fourteen
Levels of brightness!
