#1 A gentle outpouring of spirit...
And lanterns, the better to share it,
But still in their dreaming
The monkeys are screaming.
"Oh, Mutti, how long must we hear it?"

#2 Meine Damen, who'd spiel mit feuer,
Remember the fate of that voyeur:
One, hoist with petard,
Thus shown a retard
More buzzed than a buzzing McCoy-er!

#5 Nah, just the predictable B-29, I suppose, and something haiku-y that went kablooey. How could I miss the obvious rhyme for "bird?" [finger-chop]

#6 Ah yes ! I meant haiku. Not kablooey. Not kablooey at all.

Rhyme for bird - sheared ?

#8 ^ Ha! Me, before clicking the link: "Was it over when the British bombed Bar Harbor?"

Dron... I knew what you meant. Lord knows I'll quibble with some people [sorrowful skyward wave to Dad!], even whole classes of people, but not here. I'm the kind of person who'll make huge sweeping judgements based on little more than a pattern of typos or whatnot... but not here. Can't help smiling when people here are so persnickety about correcting their typos... because I've usually read right over them without noticing. Probably same for others? Eek. Rollover.
