Form: Haiku (5-7-5 syllable pattern)</p>
<p>Go!</p>
<p>Oh, dear old Dartmouth
Home of the famed beer pong champs
Someday, I’ll play too</p>
<p>How about a limerick?</p>
<p>AHEM:</p>
<p>There once was a school old as shale,
Whose graduates liked to drink ale,
Then came the rankings,
And up shot the fakings,
And now its a backup for Yale.</p>
<p>bravo!</p>
<p>and yeah wow, thanks Raspberry! something to do when i’m bored in class tomorrow lol, i’ll think up a GOOD one hee</p>
<p>“At Dartmouth”</p>
<p>even in winter
piled is knowledge and pride
hella more than snow</p>
<p>never really was much of a poet.</p>
<p>thanks, fixed it.</p>
<p>Kosuke- the last line has 4 syllables, not 5!</p>
<p>lol. and line 2 is 6 syllables. but i’ll shut up until i write the first one for the day…hmm…</p>
<p>Unlike H. Y. P.
Dartmouth proudly cares about
Undergraduates!</p>
<p>Hidden in the snow
Nurturing spirit, passion
Thrives the old Big Green…:)</p>
<p>Freezing, blustering
The winters there last nine months
The way I like it.</p>
<p>I think it’s “hell-a” with two syllables.</p>
<p>Dadaist2, that was great! I’m still laughing…</p>
<p>I don’t get it</p>
<p>i counted “piled” as 2 and not 1.</p>
<p>To Dartmouth I followed my nose.
In the Big Green, I wiggled my toes.
I thought it’d be nice
To live in the ice
But come winter, I was throughly froze!</p>
<p>“Come visit the best place to be seen.”
“Oh Harvard? I know what you mean.”
But No. 1 looked quite flustered;
“You’re mistaken,” he blustered,
“When I said ‘the best’ I meant Big Green!”</p>
<p>Through the misty night
See Baker’s green pilot light
Quietly burn bright.</p>
<p>Edit: For all who don’t know, there is a green light in the top of Baker Tower that is on during special times; e.g., Winter Carnvial, Homecoming, etc. They lit it last weekend for the beginning of the Hockey ECAC tournament, with Dartmouth playing Yale at home.</p>
<p>There was an old man from Nantucket…wait a minute, this isn’t a Haiku</p>
<p>Though I love Dartmouth
All this waiting is making
me a crazy girl.</p>
