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 |
