What's going on here? These large bags under my eyes How long they've been there?

My wife suggested placing a cucumber under my eyes I'd rather eat them than placing them under my eyes.

Nice ! They surely creep up on us. I've been reliably informed that this type of haiku is called a senyru - but it doesn't really matter ! Much enjoyed.

I had it pointed out to me Robert, but being honest it doesn't matter to me ! I wrote my first 4-5-4 the other day, and have written a few haikus too which I will put up here.

I thought so! I'm not sure what the general rule is! I'm just a five-seven-five junkie and I mostly call them Haikus. Thank you Lenny!
