Haiku

[Candy_Kane54]

Help me, I can't stop.
It's taking over my life.
My Muse is laughing.

 

[EbersMoll]

Well now Candy Kane
As the floodgates have opened
Try a sestina!

 

[Biggalute]

Haiku! Bless you. I
Didn't sneeze, I said Haiku
Oops, sorry. My bad.

 

[EbersMoll]

Waking up with a
Sore throat is never a good
Start to a Monday.

 

[Biggalute]

Man flu is bad, no
Full recovery, only
Remission, please god.

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

ding Dong ding Dong Church
Bell rings my knickers right off
I'm wet, jumping Jack.

 

[EbersMoll]

Kneeling, lips parted,
Makeup carefully applied,
Her eyes invite him.

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

Happy poetry
Day. Sun shines and so do you.

 

[Photog1rl]

Slowly submerging
Cool water surrounding me
Strong strokes propel me

 

[Biggalute]

A woman afloat
Buoyant, beautiful and bold
A true sun goddess

 

[summer_reine]

Leaves fall golden red
All creatures prepare for sleep
Rejuvenate life

 

[EbersMoll]

After summer’s joy,
Comes autumn’s ageing decline,
Yet desire remains.

 

[Biggalute]

It's chilly today
I never used to notice
I'm just getting old

 

[summer_reine]

Sleep naturally
Chrysalis awakened flies
Start journey again

 

[EbersMoll]

Insect life cycles -
A metaphor for humans,
Birth, eruption, death.

 

[summer_reine]

Energy to matter
Matter becomes energy
Cycle never ends

 

[Bamagan]

Ah, but you left out
Laying one's eggs in a host
And flying away

 

[summer_reine]

Reproductive need
Forced to follow instinct
But then, sex is fun

 

[Biggalute]

The birds and the bees
Laying down or on your knees
All is good with me

 

[EbersMoll]

I made a pear pie
With pears from our tree, planted
Thirty years ago.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

I went to write a
Haiku and ended up with
This. What do you think?

 

[Candy_Kane54]

I grew tomatoes,
Basil, and garlic, and made
My own pasta sauce.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

Drifting quietly
Down the River of Time can
Take many lifetimes.

 

[EbersMoll]

As we age, we change,
The old replaced by the new,
Deaths, and rebirths.

 

[Biggalute]

Death comes to us all
Just don't want to be there when
It happens to me
