Does everyone know what a haiku is?
Probably. For those of you who don't, it is a Japanese style of poetry that is formatted based on syllables. There are three lines. The first line has five syllables, the second seven, and the third five again.
These poems look really cool when they are laid out. Here is an example:

his cold rock-hard skin
makes me wonder if it is
really skin at all


I really don't know if that was good or not. I am not a poet, and that came off the top of my head. Anyways, have fun with this assignment!

Lenny.

haikus are the type of poetry i'm best at writing Very Happy here are a couple i wrote a while ago:

1. Abstract:

A splash of color
Abstract emotions and thoughts
Creativity

2. Mistakes:

Which is the right path?
My knowledge gained the hard way,
Mistakes lead to genius.

3. Run:

Is there no escape?
Memories always find me
Do I laugh or cry?


Do you guys like them??

The good times shine through.

Hidden on the shore

Sea glass in my hand.

thanks for the feedback! i love writing hiakus. longer poems are actually harder for me to write.
of course you can write hiakus too! Very Happy all i do is think about a subject, then what i feel about that subject. i take the emotions and count them out in syllables, then tweak with them until they make sense.


some more:

~summertime~

Rays of sunlight shine
through this cage that they call school.
Sweet freedom at last.


~fireworks~ (haha this one actually rhymes. magic!)

A thunderclap sounds,
colored sparkles in the sky,
happy fourth of July.


~magic~

Are the old tales true?
Does magic light the dark path?
If you believe it.


~broken~

Promises were lies,
the light was dark in disguise.
Unbreakable? No.



Ta Da!

OMF that one was funny Very Happy

I once had a thought
Perhaps you loved me, maybe
Was that just a dream?

Wow that was worse than I thought it would be.
I would like to point out that what we're writing is technically a senryu (thank you twirls) because haikus are nature-based and senryus, althought they follow the same structure, are not.

~stars~

A million bright stars
Shining bright in the vast skies
My tiny night lights


~time trap~

A year has gone by.
Time stands impossibly still.
Trapped in the darkness.


~untitled~

Midnight orchestra
The sounds of crickets and frogs
Summer's lullaby


~untitled~

Do you see me now?
How can you believe me now?
I'm just a shadow...

~autumn~

Leaves fall from the trees
Color surrounds us all now
The autumn is here

~something...~

Something here is wrong...
The silence takes it's toll now
Where has my trust gone?
