Diet Haiku

  • Join me in a poetry experience....

    Cheeseburger so kind.
    It's tasty, warm and happy.
    Is my butt that big?


    Make one up...It's fun!
  • HAHAHAHAHAHA that's the funniest thing ever!! I love it!

    What makes a haiku again? It's been YEARS since we did that in school.

    Let me know and I'll give it a try.

    Haikus often evoke the seasons!
  • Summertime berries,
    so tasty and delicious,
    stained my sweater red.

    Sunday morning am
    summer sun gleaming on scale
    deep breath, take a step!

    Seattle summer
    Look at skirt, short-sleeve options
    Wear sweater and boots

    Great sale on peppers
    10 for 10 bucks - a bargain
    I think I'll make soup
  • glory, love your michelangelo quote. i have that up in my hallway at school....i teach art.
    i sat here and tried to come up with a haiku but decided i had better stick art.
  • How fun! Here's a few:

    Swimsuits, shorts, and tanks-
    Hard to find flattering styles.
    No ice cream for me.

    Running on treadmill,
    Out of breath, gasping for air.
    Next, abdominals.

    Perfect apricots-
    yellow, orange, sweet and juicy.
    Twenty calories.

    Crisp green lettuce,
    Tomatoes and cucumber.
    Low-fat vinaigrette.

    Must not eat cookies.
    Snack on celery instead.
    Dieting is hard.

    Squats and lunges
    Help me tone my butt and thighs.
    My legs are tired.

    OK, I'll stop now (I could do this all night).

  • Let's see, never tried this before, tell me how I did:

    Who I am inside
    Quite thin and even beautiful
    Might see her one day
  • Kicking up a fuss
    Hitting my inner fat chick
    Kickboxing kicks butt!

    Don't want to get up
    Lace up running shoes and move
    Back for a hot shower!

    Cake in the kitchen
    Trying hard to resist it
    Eating strawberries

    Cookies speak to me
    "Eat us we're tasty!" they say
    I cover my ears
  • You're right, this is kinda fun.
  • haha these awesome
  • Love them all! Great first one Nina V....Here are another few.

    Food is not my friend,
    It makes my body perform.
    Yet it feels so good.

    Carrot cake, oh boy!
    Oh wait, I don't have the points!
    At least I like fruit.

    One sixty five, ugh.
    It seems so far way now.
    Twenty pounds to go...
