Alliterative Haiku
Sad, Mad or Bad? - I always wanted to be a dino, but alas, I'm just old. Started conversation Apr 7, 2001
Suggested by iaoth, we have Alliterative Haiku; normal haiku rules, just start as many words with the same letter as you can.
(And if you're into alliteration, definitely pop over to Word Gymnastics -- http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A525502)
Instead of posting a 'next topic', post a 'next letter' 
OK, over to you, guys, the first letter is.....
