Some say Caruso lost his voice

others think Caruso lost his Mike

Mike, Caruso, where are you?

Sorry guys.  Been pre-occupied with family stuff.  

But...the people have spoken!...either that or they're extremely bored!  Either way, see accompanying thread.

OK I give in what is a Haiku?the nearest I`ve got in my dick & harry is Haik,"a large piece of wollen or cotton cloth worn by the Arabs over the tunic."

James....it's a sort of Japanese short poetic form,  consisting of three lines.  First line is 5 syllables.  Second line is 7 syllables.  Third line 5 syllables.  There's also something to do with the last line relating to the passage of time or change of seasons or something like that.  Needless to say, I am taking many liberties with the term "Haiku!!"  

Thanks Mike I now understand .....................I think!
