When I taught elementary school, I always had my students write Haiku
Poetry. Came across some old samples while cleaning out some files. Got me
thinking about Mayberry Haikus. So I wrote some for some of the leading
people on TAGS. Hope you enjoy them.
Mayberry Haikus
Opie
A fine little boy
Seeing men walk atop trees
Red hair brings good luck
Barney
Skinny and nervous
Helping kids to cross the street
Bullet in pocket
Otis
Harmless as a cat
Stumbling in each Friday night
Moon shiner's best friend
Leon
Silent as the wind
Peanut butter on his face
Roaming around town
Andy
Defender of law
>From the heart and not the book
Cousin to Barney
Aunt Bee
Heart so full of love
Godliness above all else
Kerosene pickles
Howard
Lives with mother dear
Deviated septum nose
Dateless Friday nights
Sarah
Never sleeps at night
Invisible and silent
Answers every call
Ernest T
Rocks tossed through the glass
No milk, tea, or punch thank you
Romona's true love
Floyd
A deceitful wretch
Cutting hair upon each head
Tongue tied with ladies
