Verse Fest

So last night, as it is quite obvious from the posting time of my last post, I had trouble sleeping. Not surprisingly, I wrote of my plight as a status update on Facebook. This is what ensued:

Silver Skylark I write haiku when I can't sleep. :P
{17 hours ago via Mobile Web}

Tito: {Name changed for security reasons}
..Reading that, it makes me weep

Counting seven, must it be
You've one extra dont you see? :P
{16 hours ago} 

Silver Skylark: {that is me, LD}
Hark! What sound goes there?
Of sixes and sevens you speak!
Curled in darkened lair. :P
{16 hours ago}

Tito:
that was random..that you know
did i get it?..dont think so..

but pardon you..that i may
sleep doth come by end of day.....
{16 hours ago} 

Silver Skylark:
I could not count, so it seems
Outside, the silver moon gleams
Retire, friend, as day comes
Morrow's song, another hums.
{16 hours ago}

Tito:
Now that torrent downloads done
New moon shall i gaze upon

Vamps and werewolves shall i see
So with this rhyme, off i'll be :)
{16 hours ago} 

Silver Skylark:
Lycans rise as darkness falls
Gaze upon unguarded walls
Yet may sleep set your mind free
Of dangerous poetry. :P
{16 hours ago}

Tito:
lol..im watching a movie! :P
{16 hours ago}

Silver Skylark:
Go watch it, you Edward Cullen fan! :P
{16 hours ago}

Tito:
HAH! i made you break your count
While I secretly kept mine XD

And I watch for Jacob Black >.<
{16 hours ago}

At this point I must say that the 7-syllables are maintained if I remove "Edward" and that "lol" cannot be counted as a single syllable. :P

Silver Skylark:
I did not hear those words sad
Lest the Heavens strike me mad
For that sword thrust I'll get back
While you drool at Jacob Black.
{16 hours ago}

Kaz: {a.k.a. Prince Kazarelth}
You two are crazy.
There's no haiku that I see.
Sleep or New Moon, guys?
:P
{9 hours ago}

Silver Skylark:
These aren't the haiku
That I posted in my blog...
For Facebook to show. :P

That was a haiku...
The rest, seven syllables
Of a Rhyming fest. :P

'Nuff said! xD
