haikus
when i write haiku i write several in strings. they can be read separately as true haiku or together as a more complex poem. here's one i wrote recently.

for those unfamiliar, haikus are poems that have 5 syllables on the first line, 7 on 2nd line and 5 again on the last line.

as in a another forum we can make this thread into a haiku posting thread. so put yours on here too ok?

snow in summer seen
only in my mind it falls
as sun strikes me hard

clouds come over head
offering welcome rainfall
cooling my hot skin

worries forgotten
in perfect mental heaven
the weight falls off me

Keep it here please! Whenever I have a little free time I've been trying my hand at this.

Do you have any tips on how to write these Rat?? I've tried adding the season, but I feel like my lines are repeating themselves.. hmmm..

Light & Love

Re: haikus
anything implying temperature, weather, types of flora/fauna present, children playing at noon (summer). the length of day or night, will indicate a season well enough. theres tons. at least for english.
