Bill's 1000th Post Haiku Contest
Friends:
AS many of you know, Bill has recently made his 1000th post. As an honor to Bill's selfless devotion and his dedication to this forum and to his wife, Nicola, I would ask all of Bill's friends or anyone who Bill has helped to post a Haiku or short poem to honor Bill. (A Haiku is a Japanese poem that has three lines, the first line has five syllables, the second line has seven syllables, and the third line has five syllables.) Thanks Bill. |
True love is unconquerable and irresistible,
and it will go on gathering power and spreading itself until it transforms everyone it touches Meher Baba |
Oh Lee, I just re-read your thread. This is a contest??? So it is to be an original?
Oh well.... you can void mine out then I guess..... Maybe I will try again later. Hurricane Harrie |
Bill's 1000th Post
I am not good at poems or haiku, but my thoughts are full of thankfulness that Bill is one of us !!
|
I don't think this should be a contest, how about more of a tribute. I suggested the Haiku form because sometimes having some structure really helps creativity.

Bill
Heartfelt compassion.
Reaching, comforting, lifting. Our Brother, our Bill |
bill bill he's the man

Roses are red
Violets are blue Sugar is sweet And so are you. I just made this up ... I swear. |
Pink Girl,
It's sweet, but it isn't a haiku |

My Haiku
Nicola and Bill
Symbiotic mates for life Apart, but nearby. What a great love and admiration the two of you had for each other. Very refreshing. |
Roses are red-ish
Some vi-o-lets are blue-ish Sugar Bill is sweet |
Pink Girl
I think you missed your calling!
|
Thank you Vi. I always try to do my best. ;)

Try this Tanka
a Japanese poem with 31 syllables in 5 lines, with 5 syllables in the 1st and 3rd lines, and 7 syllables in the others.
Here's mine: Bill and Nicola Sharing life as man and wife Loving so deeply Some people never have this They did -- for eternity! |
Bill
Didn't mean to intrude on your haiku thread, the tanka suggestion was for PinkGirl since she has such a gift with this!
|
Vi, tanks for the new format
Roses are red-ish Some vi-o-lets are blue-ish Sugar is sweet-ish Bill's cupcakes kind of small-ish But still better than spray cheese. |
PinkGirl
You're quick! Amazing how you catch on.
