The HAWMC topic for today is to write a haiku about your health focus. I hate haiku (haikus?) – see I don’t even know what the plural of “haiku” is, nor do I really care. LOL For some reason I’ve always hated them. I knew that when I got out of school, I would never write another haiku. Because this is my blog and I can write whatever I want here, today I decided to write a silly poem about my feelings about the dreaded haiku.
So without further ado,
here is my poem, “I Hate Haiku.”
I hate haiku.
I really do.
I won’t write one.
I won’t write two.
WEGO asked me to follow through.
But I won’t, not even for you.
I tried in school.
I looked a fool.
“Oh my!” the teacher said, ”This just won’t do.”
“Oh and this, it’s wrong too.”
And with that,
out the dreaded red pen came.
There I sat,
as she said my name.
I don’t get it, “What’s the point?” I said.
I’d really rather go back to bed.
Than write a haiku,
even for you.
I hate haiku.
I really do.
I won’t write one.
I won’t write two.
My school days are through.
There will be no more haiku.






So funny!
I can just picture you in junior high! I bet you had rebel tendencies!
Love it!
LMAO! I love it!! I think Dr. Suess could’ve written this non-haiku.
Great poem! I hate haikus, too, yes I do. I will not write them in a box, I will not write them with a fox.
(apologies to Dr. Seuss!)
