    Ohmygod I'm a new person! I went from being Bibliobella to Haiku Sunrise because I really want to focus on Haiku and just absorb it into my being. Kindof snazzy, eh? I don't know if the sunrise part fits so well, but we'll see.

    well usually the last line of a haiku has little to do with the haiku itself, so its very fitting, and it goes well together.
    no matter where you go,
    there you are.

    I've changed again, yeah me. Ms. Haiku here, not as rosey as Haiku Sunshine, but almost as saucey as Bibliobella.

    FYI, I asked the mods to lock this thread on December 6th so we can start "Year 2" on a different thread. They didn't confirm they will do it, but we'll see.

    I always look forward to the New Year, whether it's Jan 1 or the new school year or anything new year-ish. This is exciting! Think of the potential. I plan to reread my haiku books to get back on track. This will be great, Fins! What are you crying for?

    You keep all of your old tests/exams/papers, don't you? ;)

    Man, you are really old, so old you're ancient, like a tree . . . wait a second I'm older than you.

    You're just a kid, Fins. Probably a little punker, aren't you?
