Who's down for a Haiku thread? They should be originals :)

If you don't know how a Haiku works, it's easy to learn. Basically, it's a poem with three lines. The first line has 5 syllables, the second has 7, and the third has 5 again. Just remember 5, 7, 5.

I love haikus. although I have trouble coming up with good ones. these are some of my best ones

These are some Haikus
first one has 5 syllables
then seven then five.

Delightful bundle of joy
Nestled in her arms.

Entangled in temptation
caught in a mind trap...

I was a lil'crazy when I was younger:

I found a small bird
And then I found a hammer
And I hit the bird

A "B" in Chinese
Oddly a "C' in English
What the hell happened?

I need some sleep bad
but, this mild insomnia
,sad, keeps me awake.

I am not crazy
My eyes just see queerer things
yeah,I am crazy

Tiny hands, I would hold them
