Kids TV Haiku

Posted by Brett Singer

Kids TV HaikuToddler decides that 5:30am is the time to wake up. The mind wanders. And this is the result:

Bob The Builder

Bob and Wendy have
Unrequited love which they
Express through machines

Barney

Barney, purple dino
Back to prehistoric times
Annoying weirdo

Sesame Street Part 1

One-third is Elmo
I miss Roosevelt Franklin
At least there's still Bert

Little Einsteins

Little Einsteins show
Tried to exploit DVDs
Bad idea, Mickey

Sesame Street Part 2

Alan at Hooper's
Everyone can see Snuffy
Its not the same show

Pokemon

Pokemon are odd
All they say is their own name
Pikachu is cute

Thomas The Tank Engine

Engines with faces
Perpetually worried
They should really chill

Yu Gi Oh

Something about cards
Why are they always fighting?
Parents are confused

Haiku was originally a type of Japanese poetry with a lot of specific rules, but the simplified American version is just 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables. Try it, it's fun!

All ethnicities,

But everyone loves the blonde.

Just like in college!

I'm not a bad mom,

I'm educating my kids!
