Haiku

Plenty.

I'm still strong
probably...
spero*.

*Latin for "I hope", two syllables (spe-ro).

A problem shared is a problem doubled. Spill.

spero
You will stay
with me

I dont like this one.

Spero
You will always
stay

hmm dont like that either. But the syllable count is better.

I s'pose I could simply have said "I hope". Somehow, I wanted the last line to be a single word.

Spill? ...nah, it's one of those things you'll hopefully never need to understand.

with me
rays of tomorrow
blinding bright

Oh no, I really liked that word. I just didnt feel mine was senryu-like

Ok Hope whatever it is becomes less of a pain.

Blinding bright
Anger seeps inside
Red gnashess

It will.

red gnashes
at the heels of blue
morning comes

[centre]
Morning comes
anew, every day
brings fresh hope[/centre]

I REFUSE TO BE COLONISED BY THE AMERICANS.

The Americans didn't want to be colonised by Brits, colonised they were nonetheless. Payback time?

brings fresh hope
the daffodil, when
time is ripe

No. Stupid annoying american interface forum. COLOUR. CENTRE. Ooof yaaa.

Time is ripe,
suffocated thoughts,
timely release

Your senryus are going in circles. Bedtime?

timely release
plunges into our world
rest in peace

You're right. I didnt like any of what I posted this evening (early morning?). Maybe I've exhausted my talent Or oooh I know I can blame the evil eye. Definitely.

Still 20 mins left for my turkish serial But I'll abstain from any more artistic license.

Yes, Noor's wit is sharp, like a short, double-blade dagger. (Meant to be a compliment. :S )

I am more "grown-up" **ahem!** than anyone. Do I have no wit (of either kind?) at all??? . . . :S :S :S

I REFUSE TO BE COLONISED BY THE AMERICANS-- What the hey does this mean?! :S

NOOR! Important! Pay attention! You do not have to type "color" or [center]. Use the bold A button to choose color. . . . 2nd row, 5th option, highlight haiku and click option--you'll be centred. (Advanced mode)

How do the British spell "centered" anyway?



Rest in peace
Your deep rough red bark
Sequoia

Sequoia
peaceful redwood realm
salty smell






PS: if this layout looks funny on your computers, it's me experimenting,lol
Sorry for the mess. Is the pic visible (sequoia trees)

salty smell
embodies longing
by the shore

You have American wit Frankie

The right way. Centred. Centre.

How many syllables is sequoia?

By the shore,
waves lap golden toes
sun-kissed sand

se-quoi-a [3]

sun-kissed sand
parched lips of desert
against mine

against mine
close moments of desire
undisclosed

undisclosed
sins are catching up
I am that

No one? Terrible.

I am that
Lost between sounds of
your music

I wonder if anyone got the epistemological references with "I am that"?

your music
plays between my souls
eternal

Doubt it. Your intellect surpasses most of us. I wondered why you scared everyone away from this thread. My muse died, but I like this

Eternal
Falling beads of nights
darkness falls
