marietta: yeah, who would think that writing 17 syllables would be challenging? I'm not really satisfied with the haiku homage to Starbuck's but I'll keep working on other stuff...
Melissa: you're so sweet to remember. I think it was Special K and I'll send her a pm as well. The wedding in Indy looked gorgeous!!!
This is where I need an English major to help me. Because when I read your haiku, I read it as 6-7-4 and K's as 5-6-5. I read "smiles" as a two syllable word and "every" also as a two and not three as it would need to be in your poem.
Can regional dialect differences affect the legitimacy of a haiku poem? Or does the artistic intent override the "official" pronunciation.
Haiku writing stumped. Too much engineer to beat. Hope to get it soon.
Hi cousin, Kathy Jean............I don't know what haiku is, but I liked your poem. Maybe fingertips hurt from picking your guitar. I had a cardic cath last friday............I have a good heart!

Ooops! My second line is 6 - let's say "Is the coffee ready yet?" It goes 5/7/5, right?
Perfect, K!
