Haiku

[TrailerHitch]

The same, same, the same
The same, same, same, same, the same
always the same, same

 

[TrailerHitch]

My Birthday is here
I have survived another year
It will be better

 

[Biggalute]

A smile that lifts hearts
A rare, unbroken spirit
My girl is special

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

autumn morning rain
upon the pond's quiet face.
A champagne's sizzle ~

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

a murder of crows
flap on into the bright blue
cackles full of life

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

little white embers
Some laugh brightly while others…
Weep tears of soft dew

 

[Candy_Kane54]

The tide that came in
And lifted me up has left,
Taking me with it ...

 

[Candy_Kane54]

Have you read "Flowers
For Algernon?" I feel I
Am living it now.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

I used to dream large.
Now I only dream about
How it used to be.

 

[Biggalute]

Beautiful Haikus
Silly, sad, joyous and fun
Make me think and smile

 

[AlinaX]

sorry for myself
I'd play a hand of poker
but company sucks

 

[Voboy]

When company sucks,
They do me a favor, for
I can't suck myself.

 

[summer_reine]

Locked outside in white
Bell curved cloche holds summer night
Any warmth suffice

 

[Candy_Kane54]

Waiting for a star
To fall as the blowing wind
Whispers me your name.

 

[Voboy]

Autumn is The Smiths:
Bleak. Spare. Heralding still more:
Next? Winter. The Cure.

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

Leaves fall, train rolls by.
We’re skipping along the tracks.
Leaves swirl, life goes by.

 

[AlinaX]

leaves fall, train slips by
in awe, watch the loco fly
wheels screaming, bye bye

 

[Biggalute]

Leaves fall, trains stop still.
Passengers smile, surely not?
Yep, this is England.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

When it is my time,
I hope that my exit will
Not disturb the Force.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

A ruptured tendon
Behind the knee really hurts
And makes walking hard.

 

[UsuallyPresent]

Joints that hurt never
Equal the promise within
Joints which soothe your soul

 

[Oshkosh60]

First five syllables
Then seven followed by five
What is the big deal

Not my own but one of my favorite haiku.

I think they are fun and have written some in the past but mainly for snarky birthday cards for my sister.

 

[UsuallyPresent]

What is more needed?
The knife paring away rot
Or the bandages?

 

[summer_reine]

Version 1
As ghosts of the past
Fade, trusting calm returns so
new ghosts can emerge.

Version 2
Ghost whispers withdraw.
Believe, trust calm faded time;
Consummate new shades.

Which do you prefer? What would you change?

 

[UsuallyPresent]

Ghosts from the deep past
Haunt, changing our behaviour
As we remember


My take on the ghosts theme from @summer_reine
