Being Tall Enough I See: Romantic ImproVerse Haiku

I’m tall enough for/
her, Oh Captain! My Captain!/
I mount desks and see.

Being Tall Enough: Romantic ImproVerse Haiku

I’ll stand up on the/
table, Oh Captain! and be/
tall enough for her.
OR

I’ll be tall enough/
for her, Oh Captain!, because/
I climb up on desks.

Post Late-Night Haiku Learning: Romantic Email Sonnet

I sent you
a late-night haiku,
and, this morning,
what did you do?

Walked to your desk.
That’s really best:
Stay calm and inert.
Don’t try to flirt.

When starting out,
leave room for doubt
instead of imagining
some grand beginning.

Be practical! It’s only then
you’ll avoid disapointment again.

I must confess, is reason/
to send the season.
