How long since the last haiku thread?
After Halloween
Even on the compost pile
The pumpkin smiles

1. haiku
Haiku's are easy

swaying in the evening sun,

I meant to do that.

2. What fun.
First, five syllables
The second line has seven
Third has five also.

"Picture of Lily"
"All I have to do is dream"
"I'm only sleeping"

A gift or a curse
This confined non-rhyming verse
produced thoughtlessly

Suspicions confirmed
The voice in my head confirms
That you are crazy

3. Beats me
I don't know how long
It's been since the last such thread
But we've got one now!

6. Haikus are easy.
But sometimes they don't make sense
Refrigerator

7. cool..
frost windows scraping
small white piles brushed wide by me
winter see my breath



too soon frost on grass
garage roof white and leaf-blown
birds winging southwest

8. Eating locally
Summer sunshine caught
Tomatoes in bright glass ranks
This precious moment

Locavore eating
Every bite a serving
Of sun, soil and love.
