my wife doesn't say much - 6 syllables - edit suggestion
wife doesn't say much

Now this was cute. I love the image. Make the one correction and your syllables will be correct. This will surely place. It is absolutely hilarious. She does seem to love her 'sign language,' doesn't she? With a chuckle, I think many, if not most, men will be able to relate to this simple write. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you very much Janelle for your wonderful review, I really appreciate it. I'm glad you liked it.

According to the syllable counter online that I have used for years, howmanysyllables.com, they show "doesn't" as one (1) syllable.

Thanks again. Have a great day...

Yes :
my wife does not say much -6 syllables

Isn?t this a 5-7-5? The first line would need to be 5 syllables, not 6. Trying to help ya ;-)

I thank you very much for your help and suggestion. However, the syllable counter that I use online shows "my wife doesn't say much" to be 5 total syllables. Thanks

Ok. Good luck ;-)

She looks pretty perturbed in this photo she is giving you the bird the national language of the person being pissed to no end.

Thank you Barb for your excellent review, I really appreciate it.

Yep, she's pissed all right. That look she has on her face could stampede a herd of horses. Have a great day my friend...

Super fun poem/image! I really like your "wife's" hair style. She likely gave you two fingers up for your hair style comment.

Enjoy your fingerless day (-;

Hello Mark. Thank you for your funny excellent review, I really appreciate it.

She hasn't seen this one yet, but when she does I'll probably be sleeping on the couch. I have to agree with you, that hair style makes her a real beauty.

Seriously, I would like to welcome you to Fanstory. I hope you have a long enjoyable stay. It's a fun place and I'm sure you will enjoy it very much. We have writers from every country in the world here. Good luck and welcome...

Thanks for your reply. I joined FanStory at the end of October. I do greatly enjoy the reviews and the public's comments and feedback to my 5-7-5 Haiku postings. The interactions make my day go on with a big smile.

It may be fun to search for my 'Stonehenge Rock Band's Concert' 5-7-5 Haiku. IMHO, it a cute one.

But, please don't tell your wife that this hair style is beautiful - then you surely will be on the couch tonight, or even thrown out of the house (-;

Yes, I agree Mark. If you have a lot of free time on your hands as I do this place can consume a lot of it. Fanstory is one of my favorite hang-outs during the cold winter months. I start my tenth year here on the first day of January.

If I can be of any help to you in any way, please let me know.

I shared your image and verse with a friend, who has a good wit. He replied, "Would you call that Haiku - or 4Q?" I thought his reply was hilarious.
