Tree Haiku

[Drella]

Japenese poetry, consisting normally of three lines- 5 x 7 x 5 syllables.

See what you can come up with...




-Within the tree top

Urinations sudden urge

Tiny yellow drops

[Mr. Sir]

From my lofty perch

I see beyond the hedges

Sunbathing beauty

[Thor's Hammer]

The leaves and bark fly

upside down past my face

My VT has failed

[sotc]

im climbing a tree
the leaves rustle in the breeze
earth bound i decend

[Mr. Sir]

The leaves and bark fly

upside down past my face

My VT has failed

This falling feeling

Is quite a tremendous rush

And then I say, OUCH!

[Drella]

-Wet line running knot

Muddy water on my lap

Climbing in the rain

[Jman]

Out to the branch tips
Feeling so free, here I go
Sudden rush of fear

[Thor's Hammer]

you only live twice

once when your born

and when you look death in the face

[Drella]

-Oh my aching back

Might as well call Workman’s Comp

It’s thrown out again.

[Frans]

clumsy worker
always careless in your job
brother, can you spare a dime?

[Drella]

clumsy worker
always careless in your job
brother, can you spare a dime?

:? 5 x 7 x 5 :?

[Mr. Sir]

a clumsy worker
always careless in your job
brother, spot me ten

[Frans]

:? 5 x 7 x 5 :?

sorry brother man
cant seem to count this time
will you take the time?

[Mr. Sir]

still ain't right snarfman
its five seven five ok
time to try again

[hmm]

live from this small town
the mighty hemlocks fall dead
and the bands play on

[Frans]

Sticks whip past my face
The searing pain hurts so bad
You suck, chuck 'n duck









:big-jump: :rockon: I did it, I did it, uh huh. uh huh

Bow down to me now
Kneel down to the one you serve
For I am your king!

[Mr. Sir]

=D> :notworthy:

[TC3]

In all my travels
The two things my eyes scout for
Are trees and water

[TC3]

Lunchbox is empty
Smelly asses in the truck
Tree work has been done

[TC3]

Wifebeater and shorts
No water, no lunch, no brains
Another new hire

[hmm]

here comes a light rain
the temps are well below freezing
we'll work tomorrow

[Paul B]

:) but it dont rain when its well below freezing!

[hmm]

the limbs are heavy
crisp snow crunchs under my feet
my silks keep me warm

[hmm]

edited to be weather correct

here comes a light snow
the temps are well below freezing
we'll work tomorrow

thanks paul

remember - i live in the south where we do not have snow or freezing weather

[Paul B]

:D its all good!!

[Mr. Sir]

Wifebeater and shorts
No water, no lunch, no brains
Another new hire

:lol: So funny... and SO TRUE. :X

[Drella]

-High within the stands

Between thought and expression

Glassy eyed, pleasant

[Frans]

Glassy eyed, pleasant
Breeding children by the pound
soccer mom and kids

[ChuckR]

In all my travels
The two things my eyes scout for
Are trees and water

Bears repeating.

[Drella]

-Busting ass, sweaty

Client requests from behind

While you are here

[Frans]

"client requests from behind"? "Spooning men"?


Drella, oh so weird
Womens love is like the dawn
man love is so wrong

[Paul B]

hahahaha! Frans, you're killing me!

[Drella]

"client requests from behind"? "Spooning men"?

Yeah,, I guess you're right, the Haiku did sound kinda gay.... But hey, you took it there..:P


-Tired, end of day

Do you want to climb one more

My boss is a turd.

[hmm]

the pantini is set
the rope dangles below me
dang it will not move

[hmm]

men spooning ice cream
drizzled with hot chocolate
women do like both

[Drella]

Sledge, wedge crushing blow

Splintering wood, creaking Oak

Ground shakes, neighbors stare.

[Jamin Mayer]

You all are too advanced for me. I don't think I can be that creative or disciplined to follow the rules.

[MasterBlaster]

Rules? 5, 7, 5?

How complicated is that?

[Jamin Mayer]

It's coming up with the syllables and making sense of it all.

[MasterBlaster]

The dickins you say.
It's just words put together.
Just think of the wurdz.

[Jamin Mayer]

Son of a biscuit!
I think I can do this game!
I'm not dumb after all!

:big-jump:

[Drella]

close veeeeeeerrry close

[Jamin Mayer]

Damn! I'm dumb. I should have stuck with first instinct.:cry:

"After" is 2 syllables :|:

[Jamin Mayer]

Son of a biscuit!
I think I can do this game!
I'm not dumb after all!


Son of a biscuit!
I think I can do this game!
I'm not a dumb a$$

[Jamin Mayer]

That's it... I retire.

[Frans]

Jamin:You all are too advanced for me. I don't think I can be that creative or disciplined to follow the rules.

Too advanced for me
Creative and disciplined
Can't follow the rules

[hmm]

throw in the towel
never say never again
Jamin just did it
