 Haiku is a form of poetry which is very popular in Japan. Haiku is a thoughtful form of poetry that symbolizes nature, color, season, contrasts and surprises. Haiku has 3 lines and 17 syllabes arranged into lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables. Haiku relates or suggests a moment, feeling, impression or event of a truth of nature. It's like a snapshot of some specific moment in the world of nature. More than inspiration, it's need meditation, effort and perception to compose a real Haiku. The sky on fire
Flames reaching to the heavens Glories are proclaimed
Alone and empty Standing in the darkened skies Waiting for the dawn The sun's dying rays Bid us all a fond farewell Until tomorrow Sunset slowly comes The ending of this long day Dawn begins anew
Tiny fae fluttering
Sprinkling all her fae dust Blessings on her friends She reaches arms outstretched Imploring the gods above Release from her tomb Earth and water make
An alliance at the shore An uneasy truce Pink clouds float above
A message for tomorrow A good day ahead. Its hold on frozen mountains Now spring brings forth life. Nature's calling card is found Wildly calling me. Sun's rays filtered in
Leaving lines across my face Beckons me awake Cloud swept sky at dawn
Chasing away the long night Ready for today Reflections mirrored
The world is up-side down Life is just mirage |
