That was from Cerissa, by the way… I keep meaning to sign my name since Daniel sometimes highjacks our profile!
Ummm… eh hem… isn’t this post directed towards NON Poetry people?? (I don’t think that means you, Bethany, heehee)
Really, I am appreciating the haikus (is that a word?) the more I read them. I am still not to the point of actually forming one yet, but who knows what sleep deprivation might inspire in me 🙂
I say, keep it up… at least through Poetry month!
I think people are thinking it is nice outside and they can just leave the blogging behind…what the heck HAHAHAHA.
Love the pictures, love the haikus, love all the entries by everyone! Big thanks guys. WHERE are you? 🙂 I keep checking back for a little friendly banter. Don’t leave me hangin’… 🙂
That’s me. Non-poetry person. OK, I for one have really liked reading everyone’s haiku efforts. I think that has been fun. But, as you know, I would prefer poetry whose meaning isn’t apparent to carry an explanation with it, because, as I told you last week, life is short, and I don’t like wasting time trying to figure something out that I will never have an actual answer to. Its annoying. Makes me feel stoopid. And its annoying! Pics are good, and speaking of pics, that is the sweetest pic of your pookie ever! Totally delighted me.
