What are we going to do with you lot :lol: ? Now, Violet, you've not only added a word to Cate's, but you've added a syllable as well, coming in at 6 :roll: . Geesh. AND you gave me an Edited line ~ double Geesh!

Hmmm. I've not taken the syllabic breakdown as being how it appears in writing, but rather how it's spoken. Smile in writing is certainly one syllable. In speaking, though, it becomes two. Smi-uhl. To speak it in one would be smahhl... hmmm... deep in the mountains, Southern accent. Interesting point, Violet. Either you're in compliance or Cate is [and I'm] out of compliance. Hmmm. Who's the lead Haiku judge here?

Even so... you can't just be adding words willy-nilly :razz: .

Now, if Gullivor had continued as he ought to have, we wouldn't be having this quandary now would we ;-) ?

... well, if his lordship returns, he could be the most high Haiku judge... (though, as present circumstances seem to be indicating, he's a bit hi koo koo, methinks)...
