Haiku Thread

[TheWriter]

The concept's simple:
Discuss whatever you like
but in haiku form.

First five syllables,
then seven more syllables,
finally five more.

Purists will argue
that mentioning a season
is also needed.

Personally I
don't see the big deal; but if
you want to, do it.

[Beguile's Mistress]

Your hand blessed a child
Tender lips caressed a cheek
Kindness saved her world

[Sinna Mystika]

He began to
Weep as she slipped into the
Darkness alone

Those who wish to be
Clever don't appreciate
Having been found out

[Mnemaxa]

Purists will argue
that mentioning a season
is also needed.

Haiku are seasons
Yet when we talk of people
They become seiku

[Kalyx]

Treading so lightly,
As an angel on the snow,
The winter fox crept.

[Oniya]

Yellow tree pollen
Makes a white car turn golden
Springtime makes me sneeze.

[Kalyx]

Shapely dragoness,
Scaly, seductive reptile,
My will yields to you.

[Beguile's Mistress]

Fighting it alone
You're stronger for not caring
No one holds your heart

[Skyara Snow]

Snow drifting downward,
No sounds to be heard right now,
A bleak winter night.

[Kalyx]

Winter's icy grip,
Arctic winds; fresh, driven snow,
Chills one to the bone.

[Served Cold]

Another Day Done
Thursday Will Be Even Longer
Why Must I Teach Nights?

[Mistress Maro]

I wish I were swimming
Cool water caressing my skin
Summer come again.

[Served Cold]

Today my phone died
Unconnected from the network
The only ringtone silence.

[Avis habilis]

Hours raking the roof
A foot of snow had settled
Temp next day? Forty.
