French

Two haikus in French. 20 cool points if you can read them, lol. :)
These are mostly just for practice, but they're still fun.

#1
Les crêpes, les gaufres.
Je les aime beaucoup, vraiment!
Ils sont très très bon!

#2
Les nuages crient,
"Vous regardez, tout le monde!"
Maintenant, il pleut.

  2. What was this about? What's haikus?

  3. Haikus are poems that have 3 lines. First and third lines have 5 syllables each, and the 2nd line has 7.

    The first one translates to:

    Crepes, waffles.
    I love them a lot, truly!
    They are very very good.

    (The syllables don't translate from French to English, obviously...)

    Then poem #2 translates to this:

    The clouds yell,
    "Look, world!"
    Now, it rains.

    Again, not the same syllables at all.
