It seems we tend to stay away from haiku's on this site. I would love to have some of the other writers and poets join me in a ku-for-all. I will set the ball rolling...........



Blossoms like magnets
Wind blows through fragrant tresses
Bees are everywhere



The above haiku was written in response to a photo prompt ( I've included the photo on my profile page)


Petals in a stream
Dancing in a dragon dance
Gardener's New Year

Silently hiding in the dew.
Tiny transparent drops of morning mist.
resting softly on the pedals of my rose.


That's great imagery drinker
But isn't a Haiku 5,7,5 syllables? Are there exceptions? (I'm not trying to be a knowitall, I honestly don't know)



Your right

But did ya ever know a poet who followed the rules?:heart:

Lingering thoughts of mine

Put onto paper with pen

Becomes the mighty poem

sun comes out from clouds
Bringing gentle rays to me
To bronze my white skin

A passing curtsey
Pink flurry paves the way
Summer's unfolding

Light against the dark
Orb fades into nothingness
I await my dream.

A summer solstice
Ancient ritual abounds
Stairway to heaven



Mountains magestic
Under setting sun
Brings me inspiration so
