Write a daily or weekly Haiku!!
« on: August 13, 2015, 04:50:51 PM »
If you don't know what a Haiku is then read the spoiler below :D

Spoiler
  "Haiku" is a traditional form of Japanese poetry. Haiku poems consist of 3 lines (or stanzas). The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables. It is not necessary for one stanza to rhyme with anoher.

The point of this challenge is to basically write one yourself either daily or weekly :D
Since Haiku have a set structure you must use your imagination to be able to fit the words you want into it!

Up to the challenge?

Also would you guys prefer it if I set a specific theme every week or should I just let ya'll do your own thing? Please let me know :D

Cheers!

Haiku #4????

"I think mine are wrong

I really think I'm just writing the struggles not so much about feelings like they should be about...

Haiku #9

"The sun seems yellow

The sky seems to be bright blue

Yet life seems so gray"


You can count me in on this. I also like the idea of having you pick a theme each week. It's more of a challenge, but either way we do this is fine. I used to write Haikus all the time in my Literature class. Let's see if I still got it.  ;D

Haiku #12????????????

"Contractions are good,

They help you create haikus,

And use fewer words..."

Yup, that is the secret (and a good vocabulary)
