Fool speaks like an ass
The world sees him for a fool
Fool needs sage advice

Fool speaks like a ass
The world sees him for a fool
Fool needs sage advice

I love it , as it expresses so well a clear truth...
Excellent haiku my friend, great imagery, superbly on point and truth as truth should be conveyed..
Seems both you and Abbey have poetry in your souls.
Sad that this old dark world not only has so many evil people but it also has so many fools.
Poetry is also about truth, the kind that comes from the heart and stands the test of time..
Do hope that you also post any writings you care to post in this creative writing section. --Tyr

Looking back at what happened, I am convinced that this moron joined under a hidden name just to find a way to attack me.
I have a good a good idea what former member it was. The ffing weasel that I made look like a damn fool before he ran away previously.
Myself, I fully expect a new member in the future will be this same asshat coward, coming back to try again.
Morons like that are not smart enough to give up.
Sad tis it not?? -Tyr

So few words, such a strong picture

So few words, such a strong picture

Thank you my friend. It is one that I saw up close (far to close for my tastes) and personal.
Speaking (strictly) about the extremely hard farm work and childhood poverty endured, not the pictorial description in the haiku.--Tyr

**************************************
Note: I decided to post at my home poetry site these Haiku' primarily to get them collectively copyrighted.
Thus I am posting under this new title here as well . As previously they were only recorded here at this site.
I am currently spending time going through my other poems here to find the ones never copyrighted.
Seems there are many..
I was advised by a very dear poet friend to do this because so many worthless characters steal poetry written
by others and pass it off on the internet as their own.
I have found a few dozen of my poems already stolen by others doing just that. Which suxs but does in a
way validate that if the poetry is good enough to steal then at least one can know they are not wasting their time,
writing worthless trash. lol--Tyr

You are so prolific, Robert!

My favorite is the Time and Reality one.

Truly a fantastic haiku my friend. I sincerely think that its far better than mine.
A suggestion if I may.. You should always title your haiku.
And oft give a hint of the thought of the creation/scene/idea, in your title.
Of course how you title is entirely up to you as the poet/author my friend..--Tyr
