Fif-ty one's too short
Take an alternate route that's
Fif-ty sev-en miles

Still time to rewrite
A five-seven-five haiku
Or a brand new one

"Blue Demon Degen" ?
Is that what you intended?
Line two puzzles me

Counting syllables
Is voluntary service
Like starting the thread

Kudos to Storrs Roars
Inish-a-tive is teamwork
We all pull the sled

Hey, give it a try
Start the thread, count syllables,
Teamwork is dreamwork

And one final thing:
Larry Ketvirtis isn't
Walking through that door

Field of 68?
Blue Demon Degenerate?
Both are distractions

As to the haikus
Quality not quantity
Is what matters most


Patience grasshopper
I don't count that time unit
The same as you do

First stroll neighborhood
With favorite two-year old
Haiku comes after
Poetic license
Sounds like Jen-ret which is short
For degenerate

Not sure if there are rules. First attempt at one of these. Is it still bad karma #doomed if you say it in a Haiku

UConn rules at home
Atop the poll they will stand
Both now and April

SilentDog, you can
Write the opening musings
In Haiku format:

“Does this thread have rules?
My first attempt at Haiku
Mojo gods, be kind!”

This is the big time
”Be the ball, make your future“
Carpe diem, dude

Never would have guessed
Such a pronunciation
From your first spelling

Thanks for explaining
Like rebounding your own miss and
Scoring follow-up

It's the little things
That create wins in close games
Appreciated

We all watch and wait
Will slick Rick win one on road
Soon it is game time
Please be over soon
I dread the chance of OT
Will now go to app
Great recovery
Though I was confused at first
