Moon light among us<BR>who would know to look at it<BR>when love casts shadows

Yamamoto Jul 29th, 2002 04:16 PM

Lee Mann: It's so simple, but you don't get it, Mann. 5-7-5. That's syllables - is that clear now, or is that too complicated for you?

He got to you didn't he Yamimoto. <BR><BR>Heh,heh,heh...

Marilyn Jul 29th, 2002 04:22 PM

Hey Yamamoto or is it Yakimoto? It's just a silly rhyme, don't get so uptight. Geez...Louise.

Haiku Police Jul 29th, 2002 04:25 PM

Marilyn my dear<BR>please write in haiku only<BR>otherwise leave please

Ken Jul 29th, 2002 04:25 PM

Yes... YamiTomato, why so hot headed? It's only a game. Not a classroom, for us at least.

Yamamoto Jul 29th, 2002 04:26 PM

No, Marilyn, it's NOT just a rhyme (in fact it doesn't even have to rhyme), and that's the point. Don't tell me YOU don't get it, either? Boy, there are more stupid people on this forum than I imagined.

Marilyn Jul 29th, 2002 04:27 PM

Haiku Police<BR><BR>Make me leave......Hee, Hee, hee...

Henry Jul 29th, 2002 04:28 PM

Is it Yamamoto or Yakimoto? <BR><BR>Are you having a dissassociative reaction here?

Yamamoto Jul 29th, 2002 04:29 PM

Try that in haiku, Ken. Go ahead. <BR><BR>There are other cultures besides Europe, you know, and they have traditions, and ones that should be respected. Haiku has nothing to do with rhyming. Most 3rd graders at my school (in America) know that.<BR><BR>Give it a whirl, Ken. Go ahead.

Haiku Police Jul 29th, 2002 04:29 PM

Now, now my children<BR>no more fighting in this thread<BR>show us your talent.

Im Jul 29th, 2002 04:34 PM

Wow, Yamamoto, you are so smart. You know all about the mysterious and ancient art form of Haiku. You are really special...really.....you are.
