    Oh, no, but dear James

    of rubbish you write

      My apologies. That sounds quite painful.

    It’s a poor defence
    blaming ones audience,
    I blame the writer
    Syllable counting blighter.

      I’m only blaming my audience if everyone who clicks ‘like’ is genuinely part of my audience…

      Offering disposable light relief has always been the extent of my ambition

    That was such a good point, I liked it twice (or would have if I could)

      I think WordPress should pioneer the ‘double-like’ button

        Absolutely.

        Double-like, your time has come!

    Your verse lies somewhere between
    an ecstatic dream
    and Covid-19

    At least your lines are in the right order

      I think you could re-order the lines to make it marginally less offensive to readers. But it would be a token effort.

    You inspired me today. I’m determined not to end up posting as many haiku as you are doing, but I reserve the right to make them just as useless when I do.

      I’d like to believe it’s a rare talent but I think if you can count to seven, it’s pretty achievable

    Take the rubbish out
    like husbands/poets should….or
    is the joint point moot?

    Maybe the haikus aren’t rubbish, and maybe, just maybe, you don’t understand the deeper meaning in what you’ve written. Maybe it’s just your erudite audience that can interpret the inner soul of each one and you are left in the dark feeling completely puzzled. Of course, maybe not.

      I just think I have an audience who really appreciate syllable counting
