I am ‘no’ Haiku
I am no Haiku;
I might look like one,
but I assure you, I’m not.

My Vegan Couplet (because Haikus are ‘so’ long-winded).
For plant-based food, that hits the spot,
try Kind in Looe, you’ll like what they’ve got.

Upon The Haiku
Upon The Haiku
A Haiku is a funny thing;
with its syllable count
and its three lines
of poetry
sticking to a strict format.
Not a Haiku
Not a Haiku
Not a Haiku;
brcause:
because it has
too many syllables,
too many lines
and too many ‘too manys!’

A Lune Poem (courtesy of Robbie Yates) and having 5-3-5 syllables)
A Lune Poem is…
very short,
very short indeed.
Not a Haiku!
Not-a-haiku (5-5-9)
You can’t understand
The prospect of land
When you’ve been all at sea for so long.
I could lend a hand
With projects you planned
If, one day, your life-raft reaches me.
As time you have spanned
Made your body so tanned
And, you, a stranger in your outlook.
And when you are scanned
In constant demand
Will you still be the same as you were?
Or will you just fade
In the leafy glade
Where all the branch-falls end as worm-food
When all is said, done;
Is victory won;
Or is just participation all?
—-
Five, five, nine your syllables, with nineteen lines, this being the last one of them.
