Do You Haiku?

I did it again
I managed to get this one
Number six hundred

 

What am I not getting?

 

Most haikus have a 5-7-5 (syllables per line) cadence.
No biggie, I think there was some discussion about this earlier in the thread that there are other types of formats. I much like the 5-7-5, because of its simplicity.

 

You are not getting
The six hundredth post
Try again someday

 

Oh yes that's right. Syllables. I thought it was,a word count. I knew this but then forgot.

 

I can live without it, but without you I don't know.

 

That is so cool Ged
I feel the same exact way
I'll get you a gift

 

No worries. I like how everyone expresses themselves.

 

Thank you! My pleasure! ❤

New England cold soon.
I don't like frozen turkey.
Me want some place warm!

 

I love pumpkin pie
The aroma and the taste
But, them calories!

 

You only live once
Eat the damn pie and enjoy
Loosening your belt

 

Amidst the chaos;
The bittersweet blur of life
Pause and be thankful

 

I wish I knew how
To make the pain go away
Of a hurting friend

 

My sweet little cat
Soon, you will feel all better
And, that will be that

 

She's mine in my dreams
Laughing and smiling at me
But then I awake

 

I reach out to touch
Your once warm, welcoming hands
You do not reach back

 

Stand strong on the shore
Watch the flames lead me on my
Trip to Slavhalla

 

So proudly I died
In my Adidas tracksuit
Squatting like a pro

 

"Things" will get better
I can give up or move on
I choose to move on

 

Pete, I like how you put "Things" in quotes there.
