Haiku |
| I have been trying |
| To write a haiku for you |
| Some things I just can’t do |
| Maybe you’re beyond |
| Ancient Asian poetry |
| Or maybe it’s just me |
| I have been trying |
| To get this haiku just right |
| All night for you, alright |
| I’m through! |
| Maybe this poem |
| Was lost in the sauce we spilled |
| That never got refilled |
| I’ve never thought much |
| Of formulaic verse anyway |
| And rhymes are not my fort- |
| I have been trying |
| To get this haiku just right |
| All night for you, alright |
| I’m through! |
| I’m trying not to try too hard |
| But you’re hard to write down right |
| So I pen these trite attempts |
| At haikus for you tonight |
| La da dee diddum |
| Lada da dum doo diddle |
| Dum doo la dee do |
| There, that’s sufficient |
| I wrote a haiku for you (He wrote a haiku for you) |
| Well, I tried at least |
| And that’s not so bad, I’m working here |
| Can that be said for you? |
| I’m trying not to try too hard |
| But you’re hard to write down right |
| So I pen these trite attempts |
| At haikus for you tonight |
| Words don’t work like Webster says |
| They trip me up all night |
| I’m just trying to write for you |
| But you’re hard to write down right |
