Fire


All consuming life
non-discriminant power
the form of dark light

Sun

Our Sun is a star.
And unlike where most stars are,
It’s not very far.


Yep, a rhyming haiku! More rhyming haiku here. 8)

forum back-up has gone wrong
irate customers

Hey did you know that the X-Factor has pre-show auditions? And you only get through if your good, or if you're bad. Those auditions are before national television. So they are finding bad people on purpose? How sad, then again I only watch it for those type of singers . They're more entertaining than the ones that can sing.

99% of what comes out of pop idol, american idol, x-factor and the likes is musical dandruff - because Simon Cowell and his rotten audience wouldn't recognise proper music if it bit them in the bum
and the contestants are sheep, led to the slaughter house of musak, rather than make their own way on their own initiative

Too much temptation
And too much moderation
Both yield frustration.

Another rhyming haiku from http://z8.invisionfree.com/DYK/index.php?showtopic=224

Would you go goo-goo
if you were to eat fugu
in Ouagadougou?

It can be risky
If you drink too much whisky
And get all frisky.

Approaching solstice
Gives opportunity for
Right form of haiku.

Shouldn’t haiku include a reference to season?

My haiku is not
very sophisticated...
Summer sure is hot!

famous rappers

Ain't got no money
Ain't got no friends
You big fat liar.

When you’re left behind,
Out of sight and out of mind,
Seek, and you will find.

Life is like the Seasons

Childhood spring turns to
Summer's youth, middle-aged fall
And wintry old age.

These topics are like
The sun skittering on waves
Flash and it is gone

I actually had a shirt that read:


Haikous are easy
but sometimes they don't make sense
refridgerator.

theres no such thing:

as potential
when were going where we have always been
we look back just to see the end

as observing
scattered collections
they awaken you to a dream

as an expected surprise
yet seen beyond the hill is home
to find it we rise and fall

My little haikus: ©Suporna C. - 2009

I have done God's work.
I close my eyes, exhausted.
I have saved a life.


See the blackened sky,
Hear the silent cry of death...
Welcome to our world.


Do you know our names?
We are nobody's children.
We are stars on earth.


Mark my words, young beast,
One day, the river of blood
Shall sweep you away.

anyone want to try to write a haiku story?

I'll start it, if anyone wants to continue please do, feel free to do a few at a time to get the story going

***

Wind and waves collide
fighting over our lives,
Which will claim us?

The green turn inside out
The wise hold on tight
Everything's upside down

Darkness, cold and moans
a plank, to love and hold
shadows circle beneath

***

Story continued:

The foam suffocates
The few who are still alive.
Where are their gods now?

A single flashback
Of a warm, sunlit valley...
And then it is gone.

Our salty tears fall
Unnoticed into the sea.
Our hands start to slip.

*********

from the east shines
a single ray of light
one multiplies and awakens

the sharks are gone, full
from a long night's feast
few men hold on barely in one piece

"hark! Garuda" one call's...
No, just the fog,
and a seagull's caw...

Shivering wretches;
Arms and legs begin to cramp.
Hypothermia.

Lips start to turn blue,
Breathing becomes much harder...
Death is approaching.

To the first, weak man
Death comes as his little boy.
The man leaves with glee.

To the younger man,
Death is his golden sweetheart,
So he leaves, content.

To the last old man,
Death comes as an old, good friend.
And then there are none.

waves are memories

... i think that's the end right? go ahead and start yours now trit

New Haiku Story!

The monster rises;
Its bloodred eyes burning with
Consuming hatred.

With a raspy cry,
Unbeknownst to passerby,
He shall destroy all.

The sky is burning;
Flaming towers made of glass
Crash to the charred ground.

Demons take the place
Of all the writhing humans...
Wicked is the night.

What's Haiku?

A Haiku, as Tritai has filled me in on, is a three line poem, of 5,7,and 5 syllables per line respectively. I didn't know there was a rule to the syllables, so much of my above haikus are not actuall haikus, the are just free style poems.

The easiest way for me, is to propose an idea with the first line, expand on or detail the idea with the second, then sum it up or conclude it with the last.

I don't know much about the theory behind Haiku, but I'm sure you can do a search and find a lot of info on them.

Hello! Behr 25 this post is very nice..................

Sunlight and raindrop,
Refraction and reflection:
Rainbow in sky.

icicles weeping
like lovers with broken hearts
winter's tears trickle

often unfit to survive
breaths life once again
