Concise poetry

I am rightly chided by one reader for being tardy in my entries this week...the road to hell and all that.... I did come across a site that reveiwed movies in Haiku form...and thought therefore that I would write a short entry in Haiku. And show you how clever I am!
Can't find the site though, it's on the other computer.
Haiku are good discipline (like many things Japanese)......17 syllables (5-7-5)...and you're done.
A VERY good discipline for bloggers. For example

From the curious "Red Wine Haiku Review"
Frei Brothers Redwood Creek Syrah 2002 (California)
Like a candy cane
That fell into the toilet
Gross, but kinda fun


Perhaps I shall try to write at least an Haiku...

Yesterday was church,
quite exhausting, very hot
singing was quite good

doggerel is spelt with an 'e'.

I wonder about doggerel,,,but how to usea spell check on your blog

An 'obvious' case of mistaken identity {cf Proverbs 28:1). And jsut what does the SC spell check have to say about 'flea'? Does God blog?
