It was, because now the frustration is over!

That's an interesting one sir and well thought of by you.

OK, OK. Actually I thought this thread would die after 3 posts. I'm really not very good at Haiku, but I'll try. This one should be easy:

Fog comes on my feet.
Possums recite my names.
I was worshipped once.

Cats?

Very good. Fog comes in on little cat's feet (Robert Frost). Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats was the inspiration for the Broadway show "Cats." And cats were worshipped in ancient Egypt.

Bravo!

I figured the first and third reference, but couldn't place the 2nd one, though I saw Cats some years ago.

Yup, gardening under a huge oak tree in the wind.

My internet is unclogged again, so in celebration:

Floating silberwurst
a spark, a flame, a great fall
a cliche is born

Pimped out blingster
lady bodyguards no help
needs a new home fast

eight points in two rows
snugly fit to make a house
outnumber humans
