ODAAT Haikus

[Alex Cooper]

To give credit where credit is due, this was Sven's idea to start a new thread of One Day haikus. Here are my efforts, with the first two based on my Alex ode:

Smash! Throw down the plant
You obnoxious little brat
Smack! Right in the face

Babs in bubble bath
What is this feeling inside
Lad it's called lust

Jules and Chuck in love
They have no money, no home
All about the van

Dave and Nick and Sam
Such a difficult woman
Has a lot of men

"Oh dammit Julie!"
Scream, throw arms up, chew the scene
Run fingers through hair

Marry the dentist
Goofy friends get on her nerves
Hot brother-in-law

To coach on the couch
Is that a boy or a girl?
Take one for the team

"You're the pretty one"
"You've got personality"
Who gets the rock star?

Annie and Francine
Frenemies years before the
Term came into vogue

A desperate call
Keep her talking; don't hang up
Melanie? Hello?


I can't wait to see everyone else's!

Hey, I was just telling my mom last night that those 2 were the original "frenemies". Reba and Barbara Jean owe them a debt of thanks.

How do I do the Haiku thing? You are so talented, I hope I can get the hang of it.

It's 5 syllables first line, then 7 syllables, then 5 again.
Thank you, dear. I know you are talented too! Your Alex poem last night was awesome!

Thanks Greg.

I am going to give it a try.

Schneider and his unused critters is worth at least a Haiku or two.

Max, swarthy and cute
Hot ,Bearded or clean shaven
I love him always

Definitely!

I couldn't come up with any good Scheinder ones, so I'll leave it up to you!

Why am I not surprised that Bonnie would have a great Max haiku?
Good one!

[Alex Cooper]

Wear a kimono
In the hall; friend runs by
Vandalism sucks

A boy in the house
Make up for Julie's absence
Ratings still stay good

Call up Beerbelly
Wanna go out for a drink?
Ginny left the show

[Alex Cooper]

One more:

Francine can be mean
But she had a hard childhood
I feel her--for her

I love this

[Bonniegirl]

Pot of fish chowder
Nobody wants to eat it
Must go find a cat

[Alex Cooper]

Sven! Glad you like! Please contribute!

Bonnie, the fish chowder one is great! I like that it's ODAAT-centric whilst still likely to be appreciated by anyone!

I don't know how.

Here's my effort:
Schneider and his critters
They will make the people happy
He is a big donor
