Entwined Haiku

Thinking happy thoughts
of ways to enjoy my game -
Killing the Rotscale
 
Fading eternal,
waking to heavenly light
That will be the day!

I had to change the first line - 'to eternity' made too many syllables.
 
That will be the day!
That you make me cry, That will.
Be the day I die.

I wonder if Buddy Holly ever intended that to be a Haiku *pondering expression*
 
I'm only one page
One line among the many.
Just one small fragment.

Are we having fun with this guys. Because I was thinking, if there was interest i could start up some other creative writing games. Let me know.
 
Just one small fragment
or one of many facets,
depends on your view.

Naw - this isn't fun.
It's like a poke in the eye,
but I keep doin' it.

(pronounced like 'dune' so it is only one syllable)
 
Ending misery
with a line of poetry:
Amicus Dei!

(Edit: My piano teacher has a book full of these and they're about 100 great works of literature all condensed into 14 syllables. It's actually quite hilarious.)

Syllables to say
in Latin are separate
if they are vowels.

(If they are vowels
which are separate, of course,
not simply diphthongs.)


[Yes, it's 5. AH-mih-cuss day-EE]

(You're supposed to use the last line of the previous haiku for your first line.)

But it is Your name,
Lord, which we worship daily
and owe all our thanks.
 
And owe all our thanks
And know you are to be praised
God is good, always
