Haiku Picturings!
Yes, you read that correctly. I said Haiku Picturings. For those of you who don't know, a haiku is an ancient form of Japanese poetry that consists of three lines: the first, with five syllables; the second, with seven syllables; and the third, with five syllables once more. They usually describe a moment in time or a scene in nature, but I'm going to adapt that to write haikus describing CBers. If you would like one, please post below! (First person to post, please top).

These are so beautiful! I love writing these, but mine aren't nearly as good! Would you mind giving me one? ^-^

Of course, Shy Peacock!

r. I have one for you. It's two haikus, because I'm not good at getting all my ideas out in three lines XD. I mostly focus on the "Star" part of your name... I tried to pay homage to its true origins in that last line.... Hope you enjoy:
Stars speckle the sky
Who knows what else is out there?
Planets, worlds, light, dark
Hopes, dreams, doubt, death... Life?
Fantasy is the limit
Unicorns, dragons?

Thank you! You have no idea what that means to me! OwO

You're of course welcome, Shy Peacock! I'm glad you like my opinion. I struggle with putting myself down sometimes. Positive feedback really helps. :)

Same! I admire you more than is probably appropriate, although I do this for most older CBers. Positive feedback from anyone who doesn't know me personally really helps for me.
Laylanie says wrno. You think I'm wrong? Well I haven't seen you write any poetry lately so there! Oops, I got it wrong. Now she says nrnu. Oh, you didn't mean that? Well, good.

Ooh! Can I have one?

Wow these are amazing Starseeker!
P.S OH MY GOSHHH CARDINAL SAID HER THIRD WORD "CAKE" !!!!!!! I like this one. The previous ones were "dead" and "rake".

May I have one? I asked close to the top of page four but I don't think you saw my post.

Oh sorry about that, Apsen! Of course you can have one. I've been a little lax lately in getting these done-- today is a great catch-up day for me though. :)

Whispers the trees sing
Reach my list'ning ears, a song
Of wind and freedom.
