A Silly Poem
A Funny Ode to Aikido:
I come, I go, Where nobody knows, I'm here, I'm not, I am never caught, I'm up, I'm down, I'm still not found I'm front, I'm back, I give no slack, Today, tomorrow, It's only you to sorrow! I pin, I throw, It's Aikido! |
Don't quit your dayjob.

Harsh words - but not the first time I have heard that, hahahah! One aspiring poet bites the dust!
|
The poem reminded me of Bilbo Baggins taunting the spiders in The Hobbit. :D
Regards, -Drew |
Haha, thank you. Haven't read that since my high-school days, I will have to look that reference up again. . . . I never thought such a silly poem would cause such attention. My other poems are too Japanese perhaps and maybe too contemplative to be humour here. Thanks again.

Furuya-san, please post them (or a url to them). I am certainly instresed.

ONE MORE SILLY POEM:
Harmony so easily grasped, Blending to the finest tune, Then where is this Peace you speak, Or just the harping of a loon? (No offense intended, please! Haha!) |
Aikido is it?
Uke falling to four corners scattering like leaves. </bad> Can anyone do better? |
the piece of peace
i grasp at noon is gone by dawn far, far too soon |
Great poems, everyone! (No, really.)
There are a bunch of aikido haiku that people created here, too: http://www.aikiweb.com/forums/showth...&threadid=3076 Many are actually quite good! -- Jun |
The summer night breeze
Aiki set the mind at ease The heart is at peace |
Ouch ouch ouch ouch ouch
Quick,get up and off the mat Nikkyo, YAY! Ouch :D Regards, -Drew |
how did he do that?
watching as fast as i can uke down already! |
It is Aikido a Reminescence of that "one cut one life"...?
Or it is both me and my partner blending and flowing through beatiful figures finding our path to Nature-God...? Im sorry, I havent wrote a poem in 20 years Pretoriano |
Jamie had a little Gi,
it's sleeves were white as snow; and everywhere that Jamie trained, her Gi was sure to go. But Jamie trained too fervently, her Gi saw better times; with all those breakfalls on her head, she's writing silly rhymes. |
Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue, Ukemi (too much of it)makes me barf, How 'bout you? (Based on a true story) Jeanne |
The dark moon does not light my path,
The bright sun only blinds my eyes, People's words stray me from the Path, False doubts only weigh my feet, The world flows against me, Still one step, one step at a time. |

Who can understand the words of yesterday's masters,
We are so busy living for today, Creating a hell for those tomorrow. . . . |
To stand, with your right foot forward
and right hand outstretched to catch the hand of another man, who tries to hit you but can't, and then you turn, with his hand in your hand and somehow this man falls, and lands with his back on the floor, and no pain then he get up, and tries to hit you again. |
Dear all,
Good to see poetry and aikido playing. I've been studying the two hand in hand (or maybe wrist) for the last few years and they shed an interesting light on each other. If anyone is interested in reading more, my own limited contribution can be found at: http://thewalsh.com/ Non commercial, use what you want. Best regards, Mark x |
Old, Lonely Teacher:
My eyes grow faint, My words grow weak, Students grow so far away, Who will hold my hand when I am old? Rest it there, they say, On this old, cold stone Of those long gone. Waiting for God another day. |
~When the storm blows
And the seasons change; When all are caught in the web of Time, Of Cause and Effect, There is no distinction between the dead leaf And the green~ |
~~Kensho-san, thank you for your clarification on 'hanshi' :)

You are welcome! I like your "storm" poem very much.
The storm soon ends, And the sun shines once again. Everyday, a good day, Let's go have some tea! |
