Haiku .... current feeling in 3 lines!

[lake]

I saw this and it made me laugh



So a Haiku is defined as:

haiku, unrhymed poetic form consisting of 17 syllables arranged in three lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively.

This life encounter
Seeming very demonic
Smiling anyway

I'm still me most of the time

Spineless questions
Electric shadows on walls
Short eternity

The river rising
Palm leaves gush small waterfalls
I am so so dry

[Arcturian108]

America lost

While spring unfolds its drama

I slept well last night

[Casey Claar]

An eagle flies high
Light streams in through the window
freshness fills the air

[gord]

dead deer by the road
long ear flapping in the wind
traffic rolls on by

[JackMcThorn]

the world is a mess
I tend to persist smartly
there is certain hope

[sunwings]

The gates of hell

Are locked

From the inside

Life is like a pendulum

It swings hard left then hard right

But always finds its way back to center again sooner or later

Current tiredness and lack of quality sleep:

Blanket snuggled tight,
Dreams dance just out of my reach,
Zombies envy me.

Blue sky, scorching sun
Floating face up in an endless blue sea
Summer spills into March

[Agape]

The schoolmaster watches the time like hawk
You want to ask your girlfriend

That’s before the sirens chase us under the desks

Would be another boring day in Hiroshima

The world is burning
Goblins are controlling but
The tide is turning . . .

[Jamie]

World shifts beneath me
Unseen tides of change arise
Futures yet unmet

[Ratszinger]

Today we are here
Yesterday has come and gone
Tomorrow we wait

[Alekahn2]

Early morning fog
Cherish candlelit quiet
Black cat sleeps so deep

[stimpak]

The flag is twisting
White stallions captured
Wtf happened to catturd

[Casey Claar]

The threshold is wide
am I awake or asleep?
do I even care?

Wondrous is the divide between 'here' and 'there'. - divide being an odd word for it. -- it makes all things whole again.

Sorry...No Haiku in this post.
I just wanted to say how impressive all the Haiku posts have been in this thread so far. All ridiculously good.

It took me over two hours to come up with my Haiku (Post 15), following the syllable rules of 5,7,5.
Having lived in Japan for a short 4 months, I tried to write it in the vague Japanese way that they do their Haiku.

I wanted to do a Haiku on how uncertain I am of the changes that will happen these next few years. Took me those few hours (constantly changing words).

You are just all too good at this!
