Rhinoceros Haiku Bonanza!
I was having a bit of a slow night at work and a friend and I decided to write some Haiku. That in and of itself is not too odd, but the subject of our poetic silliness was more than a bit strange: Rhinos. It may be worth noting that I work in a coffee house; clearly caffeine and boredom are a dangerous mix.
I hope you enjoy them.
Rhinoceros--eek!
Oh baby, oh baby, eek!
Rhinos cause damage.
Woe is he who falls
Into the Rhino’s cage, oh
It brings naught, but pain.
Tough gray skin conceals
A red heart full of anger.
Charge! Oh Rhino Charge!
Dodge it silly man!
That thing has horns and it’s FAST.
Goring suits no one.*
How does one stop a
Charging Rhino I ask you?
Take away his card.
A poem for them?
That is just not right.
Rhinos every night.
Why is it that Bulls
Get all of the attention?
Rhinos gore better.
Rhinos: Ornery.
“I hate this dinky tail thing.”
“It makes me cranky.”
Your face is like a
Rhinoceros; it is gray
And it has some horns.
What do you call a
Creature with horns and gray skin?
Ed, as that’s his name.
Rhinos, Rhinos, oh.
They are everywhere I turn!
Love to watch them burn.
A Rhino is not
Like a small child, you can
Eat just one Rhino.
* ’Cept Al Gore.
Well thank you for getting this far, you are a brave person, indeed. Please let me know which one you like the best.
