Friday Haiku Limerick

by Meg on July 3, 2009

There once were inseparable pals
One monkey and one little gal
They took strolls and made tea,
Were friendly as could be,
Now both species have evolved morale
-Meg

One toddler and one chimpanzee:
She showed him just how to pour tea.
He would not have maligned her,
But he had to remind her
“Hey kid, you’re descended from me!”
-Jessy

Said the Girl
Some things can not be
I’m afraid you can’t marry me
Your wrinkled and hairy
With manners quite lairy
besides you belong in a tree.
-Honorable Glad

Hey! I come here to Cute Overload
For a kitten or blorpable toad
Orangs should be wild
Not at tea with a child
I will nuff now until I explode!
-Trabb’s Boy

This orangutan’s trying my patience.
I’m tired of his poor imitations
Of the way that I crawl
And my dear little doll,
And I abhor how he wastes my libations!
-Cath

Mr. Mucky McNufferson huffs
His bellicose cheek outward puffs
He raises his ire
With indignant fire
And says to the comments e-NUFF!

“I come to this site for the cute
Like a marmie asleep in a boot
Not a chimp with a kid,
Or, the heavens forbid,
The two of them sharing a snoot!”
-Berthaservant

Friday Haiku

by Meg on June 26, 2009

Thirty-six degrees,
Easy, clear trajectory.
I could crap on that.
- Argyle Donkeypants

Sharp talons and beak
Slice cleanly, and blue blood flows.
Alas, just a dream.
- Jessie

Season? In haiku?
I can’t deal with the pressure!
Form’s too hard. (Winter)
- Von Zeppelin

On Thanksgiving Day
Nothing says let us give thanks
Like a Smurf balloon
- Daytime Deb

Complicated day
I click on CO and smile,
a moment’s respite.
- Fluffy

Stu G. and Chiku the African Grey enjoyed the Thanksgiving Day Parade 2009 2008 and snapped this beaut.

Thanks for the trip through the looking glass, Betsy B. Photo by the squirrely John C. His Flickr photos are here.

Update: NTMTOM here, pickin’ some faves (as of noon Pacific Time):

Am I dreaming you,
Or is it you dreaming me?
Let’s never wake up.
(Cath)

Master Skwerla teach
Young Skwerlwalker Ways of Force
Pumpkin, lift you will?
(Metz)

Window shopping sqwerl
Sees stripes are in this season
And giant handbags
(Trabb’s Boy)

contemplative hands
what the hell is that blue thing?
oh, look- tiny me!
(temperance)

Beautiful rodent
In an unaccustomed role
Big man on campus
(Raymond)

Squirrel’s autumn gaze
My double, safe and secure
While I adventure
(Berthaservant)

Behind the window
artificial reflection
of my perfection
(Nuri)

at the stroke of noon
your coach became a pumpkin
my nuts hit the floor
(Patito Gigante)
