Haiku’s – an experiment

Author: Jason

So after watching a documentary last night on Japan and remembering fondly my  journeys there I thought I’d try my hand at some english versions of Haikus – the basics are five syllables for first sentence, seven syllables for second sentence and five for the last one. I wrote them down today while thinking about the past week over lunch…

Broken leaf falls up

Cold fisherman sews his net

Morning sun shines true

———–

Lustful Dragon cries

Summer wind hot on my face

Her love walks away

—————

A lonely deer hides

Green leaves blow in the spring wind

Angry Bear gives chase

———-

I think I”m going to start trying to create Haikus for the hipstamatic photos I take and post here…to help with the mood.

    So weird…been having trouble writing lately and was thinking of revisting the Haiku format. Thanks for the nudge! :-)
