This might be the last haiku post for a while

From the fog, through the rain storm, under snow flakes Andrew comes a-running to point out more syllable counting mistakes in my haikus.

To be fair, I DO appreciate the critiques.

And to be even more fair, I was probably a) on the phone b) talking to someone c) looking up info and d) coding checks when I was writing those so.

LET ME MAKE CORRECTIONS!

ORIGINAL:
Taking the crosstown bus
What a cast of characters
In my life's movie

CORRECTION:
TOOK the crosstown bus
What a cast of characters
In my life's movie

ORIGINAL:
We had some extra time
So of course we got a drink!
Magners Cider Rocks!

CORRECTION:
We had extra time
So of course we got a drink!
Magners Cider Rocks!

ORIGINAL:
OK really, goodnight
No more book, ipod or phone
Get my beauty rest

CORRECTION:
Ok really, 'night
No more book, ipod or phone
Get my beauty rest

I will be correcting the original so it reads smoothly......

Practice makes perfect!
