Fun Haiku

[JDP]

The paradox is
That though we know it too well
We don't believe it.

 

[Talysia]

A fleeting moment.
A time of peaceful musing.
Inspirational.

 

[Pyan]

Like the Great White Whale
the Haiku thread surfaces
from depths of Chrons

a month has pass'd by
since the last post in this thread
Any new ideas?

More English haiku
Than written in Japanese
A sad thing, or not?

 

[Talysia]

The water of life.
It falls from the leaden skies
to fall on parched earth.

 

[ice.monkey]

where are the haiku?
languishing deep on page two.
shame on all of you!

 

[Talysia]

Softly she returns
To the thread that makes her think
of Japanese odes.

A soft, windless day,
With no breeze to stir the clouds.
Yet all seems at peace.

a cherry blossom
drifting on an ancient breeze
soon whirls to the ground

zakura-bana
to furui kaze wa
hayaku shinda

 

[ice.monkey]

the rain keeps falling
grey clouds blanket the heavens
which season is this?

 

[Talysia]

Soft evening sunlight
Breaks through patchy leaden clouds,
dispelling the rain.

 

[ice.monkey]

I sit and I wait
as the rain drums on the roof
I look for my part

 

[Talysia]

The rain falls and flows,
spilling over from rivers,
seeping into homes.

A break in the clouds.
A promise of drier times?
I truly hope so.

 

[Pyan]

Quiet tonight on Chrons
Where are they all then, I ask?
New Harry Potter?

 

[Talysia]

Lost within a book.
Enthralled by the author's words
and captivated.

(Either that, or they're all asleep from staying up all night to read it!)

 

[HoopyFrood]

So cold, the wind chills
Stealing warmth and freezing flesh
Must close my window!

 

[ice.monkey]

sun on the water
flitting, dancing fairy lights
sparkle on the waves

 

[ice.monkey]

search the dark corners
bravely look under the bed
for they are somewhere

 

[Talysia]

Golden sunlight glints
on the rain spotted garden.
A most pleasant change.

 

[ice.monkey]

a few fluffy clouds
in a rare summer blue sky
lets the sun's warmth through

 

[Talysia]

Leaden clouds sit above.
Dark and ominous they loom,
Threatening more rain.

(On a lighter note)

Gentle winds stir up.
Freeing the air of rainclouds.
Revealing blue sky.

(Perhaps wishful thinking?)
