haiku wednesday - May 14, 2008

This week's words are
average
neck
scratch

note: according to dictionary.reference.com, the word "average" has two or three syllables. I use the two-syllable pronunciation. With that in mind, here are my weekly Wednesday haiku with the words provided by bone. (Thanks, bone!)


crane my neck to see
I can't read his chicken scratch
one more average grade


red neck, white tank top
belch, scratch privates, snort, grunt, wink
just your average man


fingernails scratch neck
it must have been great for you
no, it was average

  4. The 2nd made me laugh and gloat (because I don't do/have all of these things, just a few), the 3rd one is my favorite because it's suggestive of a story.

  6. Great haiku's. I agree with Paisley- I married the second one - minus the tank top.

  8. These are a riot! As a teacher that first one spoke to me but the other two tickled my funny bone.
