Let's have a haiku war!?

Be creative, have fun and lets see what ya got :)

Haiku wars are fun

Think of a word and then some

Dandy doo ol day

Update:

THank you for informing me that poetry is meant to express and not to compete. You shouldn't take things so literal, as all I wanted was for people to ahve fun and come up with some neat stuff. so stay away with your "poetry is not meant to be a war." It's just a game here geez

    Texas has the idea...in that

    poems are to express not to compete

    Yet haiku is traditionally

    to express an `aha` moment in nature

    not to expound a theory.

    I wouldn't put poetry into a war category, nor do I think of it as a competitive sport, but I'll offer one.

    The fragile willow

    bends, the sturdy oak may break

    in wind driven storms

    sometimes oaks may break

    but sometimes the willow is split

    by lightning, and dies

    =P

    Enlightment is a theory about knowledge...or at least intuition.

    So stuff it lapiz

    Also many great warriors retired to become prolific and iconic poets that wrote Haiku religiously.

    So stuff it again Lapiz

    =P
