Sewing torn pockets
Mobile phone will stay there now
No more phone on floor

My team, the Steelers
Yours, the Baltimore Ravens
Opposites attract?

I don’t usually enjoy the process of writing haiku. I’m someone who’d find it tight having to wish somebody a good day using only twenty-five words. Consequently haiku feels too restrictive. I can’t express myself. There’s no room to maneuver. I imagine that’s the idea, yet the limits feel excessive for me. Claustrophobic even. But it’s just the thing to teach me to be succinct. I need to learn to speak in tight neat packages of brevity. So I figured I’d write a haiku about that.

What can I say when
words are so tightly wrapped there’s
no space for a sigh

Its brilliance blinded
Butterflies teased my insides
Because...defense breached

Spring in Atlanta:
Love and pollen in the air,
A gush of plant sperm.

Talking could be bad
Mercury in retrograde
Silence equals peace?

Gaige · 03-21-2012, 07:53 AM

Brisk, long, scenic walk
Now home with a tired dog
Just in time, rain starts

Hollylane · 03-27-2012, 11:35 PM

Red wine, just one glass
Swirled around, bursting on tongue
Senses now heightened

Hollylane · 03-28-2012, 11:08 AM

He looked like a mop
Little suds, snips, cookie treat
Now looks like a dog

Hi Miss Tick, I want to validate your experience with Haiku. I hear you, yet you came up with it anyway For me it's like squeezing a tube of tooth paste, the pressure helps me spit it out, in way's I would never have come up with on my own, lol.

Haiku poetry
makes me search in new places
for delicious words

Texas heat rising
last summer the earth scorched dry
frog songs call the rain

Passionaria · 04-01-2012, 05:28 PM

sultry voice insights
sweet sensuous upheaval
moonlight kisses stars

Passionaria · 04-03-2012, 10:23 AM

addictive cravings
karmic weaving's unconscious
dysfunctional love

is your comfort zone
and real love feels abnormal
kindness is boring

so take the abuse
calling it love is crazy
it's your cross to bare

Hollylane · 04-12-2012, 10:25 PM

It was such a charge,
the flashes of light above.
Lightning stoked the fires

scootebaby · 04-12-2012, 10:41 PM

Longing for loves kiss
Closing eyes I imagine
Her soft lips to mine.

When you least expect
Your heart is stolen away
Breathing becomes hard

I was on a roll
Thought i could keep it going
Guess i was wrong huh

1/3 of income
Taxes are too fucking high
Robbed by government

Hollylane · 04-14-2012, 10:06 AM

Eyes won't stay open
The bed has been made neatly,
but still, it woos me

Passionaria · 04-20-2012, 05:07 AM

wind shifts unsettling
some dreams they never come true
sorrows to the wind.......

Hollylane · 04-23-2012, 09:13 PM

25 days left
'til Virginia Beach sunsets
Time passes quickly

Hollylane · 04-29-2012, 04:50 PM
