Yippee, I'm so glad I found this thread...I really need to "get out" more (from Lyric Feedback Forum 3, my home away from home!).

Kathy, according to the parameters described above -- and those I recall from Campfire Girl days ; ! -- that most definitely meets the Haiku criteria. Lovely.

I'm also thinking that these haikus are a great writing challenge in their own right, as you do need to get a clear message/image across in a mere 17 words. For those who know me, they are probably impressed I even ventured into this thread.

Anyway, I may even do some more!

Pulls out a loose tooth


Oh my, this could keep me occupied for a while.... eek
