    Great luck that I don't pretend to like those. I press the button to say those are good!

    Happy 2008!

    Now I remember, Mrs. O'Leary's haiku. I do like your site, and your comic/macabre and touching takes on the prompts. As to mine, some people would consider God a "hypothetical amusement," as well.

    you know? i was going to try the whole haiku route, but then that whole scene unfolded in front of me so i decided to use it.

    am i the only person left, in the world, that still counts syllables on their fingers when trying to construct a haiku? i feel certain i am.

    you however, DO NOT appear to have that problem and i am jealous. excellent use!

    Consider this as 'easing winter'. Nice 'ku and nifty fine site.

    I like when I can picture what the haiku is saying and I certainly can here! Great job!

    Just hoping to ease winter a bit.

    I always count syllables on my fingers, whether constructing a haiku or reading someone else's.
