Everyone Loves Haiku

Post  Sprucy on Tue May 06, 2008 5:03 pm

First of all the rules to the common Haiku:
First line usually contains five (5) syllables
Second line seven (7) syllables
Third line contains five (5) syllables.
Haiku doesn't rhyme.
A Haiku must "paint" a mental image in the reader's mind.

Couple of examples:
The red blossom bends
and drips its dew to the ground
like a tear it falls


Curving up, then down
Meeting blue sky and green earth
Melding sun and rain

I will contribute
When I've written a haiku
Some day very soon.

Really should revise
There is only one day left
But baseballs better

Vaginas are meek

I sit here at work
Consider my life as is
And cry in despair

Maybe I need a new job,,,

I would like a drink
A long island iced tea now
To ignore the boss
