Pipeband Haiku

[ettsn]

Let's try some Haiku, pipeband style!
(Remember, it's 5-7-5 syllables.)


Standing at the line,
March to the circle goes well,
Curse that trailing drone!


Give it a try! :)

-Paul

[ettsn]

Ghilies tied up tight,
Bonnet straight, buttons polished.
Deportment is key!

[ettsn]

Crank the batter head.
Get the snares tuned up just so.
Strap up and get to playing!

[chi-jason]

oh, jesus.

scottish eggs, anyone?

[ettsn]

Scottish eggs, you say?
Thanks for your offer, but I'll pass.
I don't eat haggis either!

[The Celebrated Mister Kite]

This guy's a weirdo.
Who thinks of writing Haikus?
What a big loser.

[chi-jason]

huh, pipe band haiku,
crazy you say but not so,
funny man in skirt...

[Duke Guinness]

The drums and my sticks
The three of us are now one
Still, I must beat them

[MasonPiper]

What the heck is haiku?
Sounds like another form of sushi to me.

[Jan]

Wailing drone drones on
I reach up to stop the sound
At last, a sweet song

[Colonel644]

with my mace, out back,
I throw it in the air , high.
E.M.T.'s arrive.

[Aaron M]

He has succeeded
Colonel, the six month wonder
HSK is his!

:hatoff:

[Linz]

"Sounds like another form of sushi to me."

Hey! Sushi's not bad!
Throw it in the microwave!
Then it's pretty good.

[MasonPiper]

This sounds like some sort of an artsy fartsy thing, only you college edumacated people are privy to. I'm going out to shoot my guns.

[Linz]

Scott's party was great!
when we havin' another?
next time I won't drink!

I see my chanter
it begs for my attention
I turn, and post again.

Look at what you did!
I'm speaking in haiku now!
My friends think I'm nuts.

[MasonPiper]

"My friends think I'm nuts. "
...........Not just your friends .

In Highschool we learned Haiku
No college needed

[Tartaniac]

YOU GUYS ARE REALLY CLEVER!!!!

[Tartaniac]

YOU GUYS ARE GREAT!! These are really clever...please, keep going!

Pipe major is great.
Not so for all band members.
Suff'ring for my art.

[Rafe]

Well, it's a haiku.
How difficult can it be?
Try not to write one.

[Linz]

"My friends think I'm nuts. "
...........Not just your friends .

BWAHAHAHAH! That's great! Made me write another haiku.

Mason thinks I'm nuts
Now he wants to shoot his guns
Can I go shoot too?

OH WHEN WILL THIS MADNESS END!

[ettsn]

Two, three pace rolls start.
The hornpipe is coming on strong!
Let's nail the damn jig!


Midsection flourish:
In a flurry of white fur,
Between sides and bass.


Sweating at massed bands,
Drum major says: "By the right..."
Now we can drink beer! :)

Drunkenly, I fall.

Up high went his mace
Then, in public did admit
T'was caught with his face!

[Duke Guinness]

Call my kilt a skirt?
Never after my third pint
I kilt' the last one

The pipes are calling
to practice I must now go
drum, drum, drum now drink

Scotch in my sporran
waiting for me in a flask
Neat or ice? who cares?

[David Corbett]

it has 9 lil notes
4 reeds and a leather bag
how hard can it be

[David Corbett]

Bang Bang Bang the drums
Wha hmmmm the drones all kick in
My God, Majestic

[David Corbett]

fingers light of touch
warm breath, soft lips, fill me up
Great being a BagPipe!

[Andrew Lenz]

I would post here too.
Won in P & D last year.
So I won't do it.

Andrew

[ettsn]

Did you steal my flask?
Highest crime: stealing whiskey.
Reason for my Sgian Dubh!

[ettsn]

Work boots and broadswords.
Oily hair, tied back with a string.
Oh God! Not RenFolk?

[ettsn]

Hours and hours on pads,
All to reach our biggest dream:
Play like Kilpatrick!

[Chip Shuler]

Paradiddles and
Ratamacues, play them all.
Pray for first, get drunk.

[ettsn]

Highland dress every day.
All my shoes have six foot laces.
My sock holds a knife!

[ettsn]

Dunsire is our guy!
Thanks for hosting these forums,
Even with silly posts! :D

[the fishiologist]

my kilt is itchy
sweat seeps out from every pore
why wool in july?

i can play it with my nose
pipey makes me change...

[MasonPiper]

:lol: Linz, your very welcomed to join me anytime, as long as you don't talk like that. Now I know why I never heard of haiku.

[SerialKilter.]

with my mace, out back,
I throw it in the air , high.
E.M.T.'s arrive.

[Kenneth Tucker]

I start to scrape with my knife

[Ian Crane]

Nicely tuned all day

O frantic retune!

Ian

[Don Robertson]

Wind blowing in trees
Pipeband playing at the beach
My glen, blows away.
:shrug:

[Colonel644]

Oh we are doing other poetry as well now???

In that case,

There once was a piper from Nantuckett,,,,,

[Linz]

My pipes await me
I really must practice now
My pipe major yells

This is addictive! I've got Hubby doing it now.

[Kenneth Tucker]

Regimental I
Playful children raise my kilt
All is revealed

[kiltedfirepiper]

chanter sounds shyty
7 Mo. daughter looks awed
if only she knew :rolleyes:

practice makes perfect
well since nobodys perfect
practice practice ......on :shrug: (damn one too many for the third practice)

the kilt is very nice
picks up chicks in bars

[Kenneth Tucker]

Drones don't match chanter
Tuning is indicated
Will anyone know

[Linz]

regimental kilt
the question comes, I know it,
she asks, I show her

Ummmm, that's hubbys contibution.
MARK!!!!!!!!! BRB

[psychopiper]

My mobile beer tent
dispenses water of life:
" Johnny Walker Black? "

[psychopiper]

Drum major screwed up
No solo to set the beat-
'Amazing DIS-grace!'

[Kenneth Tucker]

Polyester kilt
Plastic sgian dubh and sporran
Cheesy piper boy

[ettsn]

Some toss the cabar,
Still others herd sheep with dogs,
I play with the band! :)

[ettsn]

Ensemble is poor,
Doublings crushed and flams too fat.
Watch the Major's foot!

[Kenneth Tucker]

I tape my chanter
and play Mist Covered Mountains
My F is so flat

[ettsn]

Sporran flask is dry,
Some old guy is rambling on,
Please save us, Drummy!

[ettsn]

My kilt is soaked through,
Why so much wool in this heat?
The price we pay, no?

[Don Robertson]

We want to wear glens,
Pipey says, "Feather Bonnets",
We all get head aches.

[Don Robertson]

Can't go on band trip,
I cry, pout and stomp my feet,
Wife says, OK GO !

[Don Robertson]

ettsn starts the topic,
A lot of folks add poems,
Lymerics, anyone ?

:lol:

[Seoras Guinne]

Folks,

How about:

Bha airgead agam

Tha mo dha lamh goirt

(I did have money,
Now I'm a piper.
My two hands hurt)

Best,

Kilt jacket. Ghillies.

The band marches out.

[psychopiper]

To the beautiful red head I met at the Alabama Highland Games yesterday -

Camera toting dream
Looks for Duncan and McColl.
Lea, your band rocks!!

[Kevin McQuiggin]

Mid-summer doldrums
Sheepskin is problematic
Burst in the last jig

[Kevin McQuiggin]

Ensemble so bad
All sorrow in the beer tent
I'll have a Guinness

[ettsn]

We'll play a concert,
Even sing for our supper.
Just no more massed bands!

[MacDhughaill]

Pipe band practice now
Listen to the sound it makes
Dream of dreams Grade One.

[MacDhughaill]

Rockets in my drones
Cocobola conveys the tone
play and play all day

[Kevin McQuiggin]

Judges ecstatic
Medley gripping all who hear
Strange to score dead last

[Jim H]

New to the pipe band
They ask me to learn bass drum
I have no rythmm

[John Henderson]

nine notes, three lines, think
"how hard can it really be?"
and yet, it *is* hard

what's in a pipe band?
love of music, tradition,
bad livers, bad ears

"Haiku is stupid"
"bagpipe music is stupid"
you just don't get it

[James Keeler]

My dog's name is Queen
She was born to herd the sheep
You've got to work 'em!

Working the sheep is in their veins

On joining a band
You should call Etymotic--
You'll want their ear plugs.

FUNNY!!!!

[ettsn]

The Sun's blistering,
Sweat has now dripped into my eyes.
No more dog demos!

[ettsn]

So you want to learn?
No PC, but you bought some
Pakistani pipes?

[psychopiper]

Smell of fresh mown grass,
'bug's eye' view of games
(passed out leaving tent).

"and now, we present -
Sounds from the Beer Tent, part 1"
Glug, hic, "Barrff",WHUMP!zzzzzzzz......

[ILM Piper]

(Written during American Lit. class: Hey, I'm American, and what I write is literature...)

Ghillies tied up tight
Competition band only
To the line we go!

Nervous will I be?
The drums roll and off we go
Adrenaline rish...

--TCH

[BillC]

Going to Scotland!
How much to get to Glasgow??!!
Wife's gonna be pissed...

[BillC]

Marching to 3/4,
5/4, even 7/4:
It makes my brain hurt.

[ThugPiper '72]

Why do I do this?
Why, why?
Why?

Why are we waiting?
Why, why?

The Best of them All

[Don Robertson]

This topic runs long,
Many bad poets are here,
I guess they must be drummers.
:wink:

[ettsn]

That I rather doubt,
It is rhythmic in nature!
Drummers then do well. :)

[SerialKilter.]

Jiggly beer beer beer
Everybody together
Jiggly beer beer beer

ooops, not related
so, there was this piper guy
he enters a bar.....

Bartender, turns, asks
what are you having there Mick?
1 martini please

Mick slams his drink fast
Puts his olive in a jar
orders another

He slams his drink fast
Puts his olive in a jar
does this for an hour

bartender rubs head
asks Mick whats with the olives?
Mick says, its me wife

yea yea, me ole wife
sent me out for an errand
buy jar of olives


:D :D

[Day Tripper]

The band marches past
the pipes, drums in harmony
the crowd claps, we smile

[BillC]

Sir Daniel Breda
said "I hate utilikilts"
very long ago.

[ettsn]

A kilt from EBay,
The poseur also bought some
Pipes from Pakistan!

Three turns in the front,
Around the back of the leg...
Why are they so long?

A piping haiku.
A sign that you have too much
free time on your hands.

[OhAodha]

Kilt has not arrived
Pipey pushed Utilikilt
Serial hates them!

[CreekNation]

Double tap sounding
My bag is still kinda full
Please no trailing drones

[BillC]

A box from FedEx:
Kilt jacket arrived today!
Does it fit? Who knows?...

[Claxon]

Just another Games
two-four, Piobaireachd, strathspey / reel
What? No beer tent here?!!

[RosieJ]

Single malt in my flask
Sgian dubh in sock for son
Mom still corrupted!

[ettsn]

Flask of single malt,
Son has noticed my Sgian Dubh.
Mom is corrupted!

(remember they're 5-7-5 syllables!) :wink:

-Paul

[Trailing Drones]

We should publish these
Some of them are really good
We could all get rich

[RosieJ]

Well, geez, so I didn't look up where you divide the words EXACTLY!! Picky, picky, picky............

Single malt in flask
Sgian dubh in sock for son
Mom STILL corrupted! :lol:

[CreekNation]

Past the tough part now
The mind begins to wander
Focus, now, focus!

[CreekNation]

I played that part twice?
I'm not too sure about it
Here we go again

[CreekNation]

Chanter singing sweet
Taped that D to perfection
Drones are hypnotic

[ettsn]

P/M needs more sound,
This new reed is like lumber!
I think I might faint...

[ettsn]

Ugh, my drum sounds flat.
Just a little more tension...
Bang! I need new heads.

[James Keeler]

Crap, I have sweaty hands
I hope I don't drop a stick
During the QMM.

What? Band, Ready, Quick, March?
But my Glengarry isn't on right
And my hands are sweaty!

Am I out of step?
Nope, it's just one of the pipers.
Now we're forming the circle.

Our Drum Sergeant can play!
Wow, his hands are a freakin' blur!
Mental note: Keep looking in...

Here comes the hard part.
Oh please God, don't screw this up!
Well, that wasn't too bad.

Phew, I can relax now.
That chick in the audience is hot.
I bet she... We're done?

Well, that wasn't so bad.
I hope that the judges liked it.
Woo Hoo! It's Miller Time!

Let's go for the gold:
1000 posts in 1 thread.
Pick up the pace, team!

[Colonel644]

If that were the case,
The "Braveheart" thread would still be.
I miss that one , lots.

[Snarah]

Just whack the bass drum
They say to me when I play
Screw them -- I play well

Breezy day parade
The wind blowing up my kilt
Regimental bliss

[Snarah]

Whoops! Accidentally posting again. Durrr...

[Jimmy the Piper]

I don't know the tune
I guess I'll just blow my drones
Ahhh, the perfect crime

[CreekNation]

Just blowing the drones?
That is truly criminal
Porking tone like that

[Jimmy the Piper]

:wink:

[Åge Jonny Jørgensen]

The beef has been eaten.
Where it was fried

The wind is bitter cold.
Blowing fiercely down the street.
I have nothing under.

[Åge Jonny Jørgensen]

The pipe band plays.
The wind is heavy now.
who’ s got knickers?

(There are stormy days nowadays!)

[Jimmy the Piper]

I am posting this at work
No one suspects me
I am alone in my cube

[Jimmy the Piper]

Surely you are joking, Creek
Just the drones sound good
If you're a crappy player

Damn, I worked so hard on those! I blame Snarah.

I really thought those ones were clever. Oh, well... :blush:

[James Keeler]

Pipe Band Haiku is fun!
Next time, let's try Pipe Band Sonnet!
Weed the men from boys.

[CreekNation]

Easy, Grasshopper
One must master walking arts
Before hopping there

[CreekNation]

Tassels swing in time
Mesmerizing marching beat
Ghillie brogue untied

[Aaron M]

These really aren't tough...
Only five, seven then five...
Why the confusion?

Syllables you see
That is what is counted here
Five, Seven, then five!

Some of them are great!
Others really cannot count...
But still really fun!

[ettsn]

Bass drum is singing,
Thunderous tone it's forte'
Like Scottish Taiko!

[BillC]

It's been 3 years now:
Can we resurrect this thread?
Let's give it a go!!

[Iain Sherwood]

Attack is perfect
Drones are humming, snares sing;
Chanter falls on ground.

[LaurelNolen]

Tenor solo gaffe!
I must repeat the error
The second time through.

[snomingo]

Brand new tune to learn...
Quick! Grab my practice chanter!
*washes honey off.*

[Steve Sutherland]

Massed band announcements...
Winning bands are marching off.
First to the beer tent.

[BillC]

Out in the middle
Where the sound is deafening;
Oh, for my earplugs!!!

[Hunter S]

Strike in, sound
bending fingers, effortlessly
Judged by the expression on the lone man's face, undiscernable.

[Steve Sutherland]

My ears have had it.
Should have plugged them long ago.
What did you just say?

[Steve Sutherland]

Here's haiku structure:
Five, seven, five. That is it.
Syllables per line.

[BillC]

Thanksgiving parade:
Jeez, why do we do these things?
Warm up with whisky...

[RobertScott]

A piper was flung into Gaol,
and petitioned his friends to make Bail,
He feared doing time
for committing the crime
Of publicly thumbing his A-hole


Irish Haiku

[Pari Bailey]

Steve has it correct:
Structure is five-seven-five.
Limerick? Not quite.

[Steve Sutherland]

I love limericks.
Truly, they are not haiku.
Fodder for new thread?

Drummers to much noise
Pipers bring the sweet refrain
Sticks assault my skull

[Steve Sutherland]

Pipes who play alone
Need drummers to help keep time.
Now we are as one.

[LaurelNolen]

Speed up, then slow down.
Oh, for a pipe major who'll
Tap a steady beat

[David Corbett]

Recorded myself
and listened to the playback
want to buy some pipes?

[LaurelNolen]

Brand new tenor drums
See the gleaming wood finish
Which will get scuffed first?

[David Corbett]

I write this haiku
not to show poetic skill
but to get more posts

[LaurelNolen]

Does piping cause or
attract insanity? Hmm.
Haiku writers know.

[Drew McPheeters]

Haiku for bagpipes?
What utter nonsense is this?
Practice time wasted!

[babemag160]

Help, help, please help me.
We are killing space on the server.
Please shut this thread down.

[Steve Sutherland]

Threads about ebay
Waste more space on the server.
Not as fun, either.

[TwitchyFingers]

Help me count to five.
Seven's also rough to get.
Yet I play six eights.

Call Donald Mclean
Play 79th farewell

Some of them are really good
We could all get rich

Not rich yet from piping?
try another sure fire plan
publishing haiku!

Good! I can practice.

There's eighteen pages
Of bad Japanese poems
With one or two gems!

(And this ain't one of them!)

The pipes were quite cold
The concert seats were all sold
The playing was bold.

[David Corbett]

And now all we need
From a composer of note
Is Haiku the tune

[Steve Sutherland]

Is't enough haiku?
Down thread, again, now to rest,
to rise yet again.

[David Corbett]

These pipes and drums played
For those who gave all for me
Rest in peace, Thank you.

Three year old posting
Revived with new poetry

Totally lost it.

Posted a silly topic
Hey, where did it go

Uppon this forum often
This takes the biscuit

Many have posted Haiku.

People always say
Amazing Grace is haunting...
They don't hear you tune.

[Linden MacDonald]

I'm just getting my pipes up and my friend composed this haiku in honour of my playing

Pipes make my ears bleed
Screeching sounds like dying cat
Oh God, make it stop

...alcohol was involved...

[Rafe]
