Go to Haiku And Other Aperçus

Lost In My Own Space....
I keep thinking this is Saturday and expecting Saturday things to happen. I keep telling myself it is only Friday.....but it doesn't feel like Friday. So being rather discombobulated, I'm not quite sure I'm going to make sense here.
An awful lot of things that I put on this post are presented to you as if they were haiku when they are not haiku because they do not meet the requirements for Haiku which are quite strict. Real haiku must be about nature to be called haiku. In fact, in my post here there are a total of 45 creations that look like Haiku, but in fact only 9 of them meet the requirements. Thirty-six of them, in reality, are Senriu or Tanka it . The Japanese are very strict about their poetry in form, in content, etc.
Most of what I have written in this place must come under the heading of "aperçus" and the "aperçus" is what makes it fun for me. In fact, out of 47 postings, only eleven of them are true Haiku according to the Japanese..

Re: Good Evening
Goldiec, I couldn't do Haiku if I didn't have fingers to count syllables. It is hard to finger-count syllables and type at the same time....LOL

Taps, as I have said before, I wish I knew how to write like you. Have a good night.
