Oh we'd find something
(and it's spelled persnickety
just so you know)

Blantent is also
rejected by the spell check
long as I'm at it

Has anyone else
Been thinking in haikus now?
driving me crazy
 
Haiku Newbie Ode
from posts I've read in some threads
at least there essence

corns like company
I've had my snake for two months
so I know a lot

I think snakes are fun
I let them out in my yard
I run and chase them

your temps are too high
I haven't bred cornsnakes yet
but I like to post

what is wrong with Jack?
my snake is always hiding
he doesn't like me

he wont eat the mouse
the mouse bit my corn snake Jill
Jill the scaredy cat
 
The force is with you.
Resist the urge to keep more.
They'll just take up space.

So, Meg F., whistling
naries are ok in blue?
I have one whistling.

Not my own nostril!
Sorry for opacity.
My snake is whistling.

She is also blue.
No cough, no snot, no bubbles.
Just whistling naries.

I searched for whistling;
this is all I discovered.
Should I be concerned?

She acts ok
and wasn't whistling yesterday
when she wasn't blue.

Don't want to argue
but "pernickety" also
is acceptable

I have to say that
I love the English language -
all varieties!

Back to cornsnakes though -
Three weeks until my eggs pip
"Don't count your chickens!"

OK you got me
The english language is strange
I apologize

You can't convince me
To call soccer football though
I draw the line there

Good luck with your eggs
Mine should hatch at the same time
They were laid May 1

:)
 
US English is
a different language to mine
So - vive la difference! :cheers:

Thanks for good wishes
I send mine back to you too
Egg-citing waiting! :)
 
For the longest time,
I had refused to Haiku.
But now I give in.

I have to confess,
This thread has been fun to read.
Time to contribute.

Ghost motleys have hatched,
Ghost times bloodred are pipping.
More due any day!

Hatchlings doing great!
Others refusing to eat,
Will become king food.

Husband took three months,
To read bold print on cover.
"Good Grief, Charlie Brown!"

Now he knows he is
An INDEPENDENT agent
And is not tied down!

Get another job
Selling other insurance!
I have bills to pay!

Boss's wife at work
Is driving us nuts again.
What a female dog!

This is sort of fun
But now I must go to work.
See you all in Chat!
 
This thread was buried.
I had to resurrect it.
Haikus are much fun.



Thanks for the rep Serp.
must spread rep around before
giving more to Serp.
 
Let us resorect
This great thread which is so fun
Inspires us to write!

Not fight! lets be friends
We can get through the changes
That have split us up

New comunity
New members, new attitudes
Deal with it people!

In the end you'll see
Things happens for a reason
Who'll be next to write?!
 
OK I will play
I'll try to think while I am
feeding the juvies

I fed the adults
they're just out of brumation
and being picky

three once ate frozen
but now they just want live stunned
this could get costly

finicky cornsnakes
just eat your rodents dum dums
driving me crazy!

My freezer is full
So I guess no more ice cream
or frozen dinners

No room to put food
and when I open the door
frozen mice pelt me

:rolleyes:
 
Breeding has begun!
Twenty-one hookups so far!
Now the males won't eat.

Mice and rats galore!
Hungry female corns gorging.
Snake poop ev'rywhere.

Cruising the forums -
More fun than doing taxes.
Paperwork - not fun.
 
Can't wait for new snakes
to poke out from their shelled homes
Will YOU breed my snake?

Bought three mice, did I
to breed feed for snakes of mine
but more snakes I need.

One caramel, YEA!
one butter motley, i hope
okeetee maybe.

Far too many morphs
all beautiful, but which one?
This summer brings choice.

Oh, who shall have them?
The snakes I seek and search for?
will it be you or...
 
Purchased my first snow
From a big city PetCo
Died on the way home

Are snows in my cards?
Need them to make triple hets
Only time will tell

Next time buy on-line
Shipped to me by Kathy Love
Overnight FedEx
 
Big day for my Zee
Hasn't eaten for a week
Envenomation!

Where's W2?
I want to buy some cages
I just file EZ

Two snakes on my list
Honduran Milksnake female
Western Hoggy girl

That's just the short list
Really want a KSB
And an MBK

And a Bloodred Corn
Little grey-headed hatchling
Watch him turn dark red

Torties need a pen
I don't know how to make one
Termite-proof concrete

Once they are outside
Maizey is moving on up
To the 40 g

How I catch my snake:
Knock on the glass, "Choco, Hi!!"
He appears quickly

He is my fav-rit
Why aren't the others like him?
He's superior!

Nanci
 
Sliding through the walls
Looking for some yummy food
I was so hungry

Hmmm...what's that I see
It's moving in front of me
Angel's little toes.

I'll eat that right there
But it was only a sock.
That child did I scare.

Went for a long ride
To ask someone what I am
A python is he

But wrongly ID'd
For I'm a cornsnake, you see
People are silly

I have a new home
No more biting at kid's toes
I'll get a big mouse

Monty has a name
Adopted by Joanna
Elated is he.


I just had to add to it! It seemed to need more!
