Gary,
I thought you might be interested in my attempt to put to use what you taught us in the haiku class August 1st. I have been trying to write a haiku every day and have written 14 (?) counting two I saved from the class. After working each of them over several times, I scored them all according to your method. The two with the highest scores are shown below. I would be interested in your comments.
