Serene Garden Hues
Nicely shaped in every way
Drenched in mirth this day

Clouds, let the rain fall,
pitter patter pain away
from nebulous souls.

my favorite haiku are the ones that say something about people even while they speak about nature

ok, WE NEED MORE THAN 2!

Crash Down [Haiku]

The waves crash down hard,
Causing motion, They sway back,
And crash down once more.

`````````````````````````````
A Japanese poem composed of three
unrhymed lines of five, seven, and
five syllables. Haiku reflects on some
aspect of nature.

{Only haiku I've ever done}

From The End of the Riverbed

Watch the river flow
The vein of the forest fair
Lifeblood of beauty

~My Mountain~

Climb up my mountain.
Please, come sit and talk with me.
I am all alone.

~Sean Dohr~

oops, made a mistake

~ Alls Eventual ~

Limbs grow weak I fall
Resting near my birthing stone
Alone ungrounded

it's 6 syllables, I'm sure you can figure out some way to reconstruct it to 5

Fire Movement

Exotic flames dance
From the center of the Earth
With molten beauty

these are good poems you guys, SERIOUSLY! keep em coming

.. for those who dare ..

for those who wrong me
cold death awaits those who dare
in the ocean deep

Hope you like it..........

Playing with thunder,
Dancing with fire and rain,
Discovering life.....

Reborn

The charcoal forest
Life licked from mother nature’s hand
Until its reborn

As The Stream Runs By [5 Haikus]
by ¤• נєѕѕу •¤ ™

As the stream runs by
It splashes and shines with grace
Leaving you enthralled..

The stunning movement
Of dazzling water flowing
Shocks the eyes of us..

She swirls and twinkles
In the golden rays of sun
Leaving behind all..

The pretty blossoms
Of startling trees far and wide
Float in her waters..

And as we gaze close
We see the beauty clearly
Always flowing by..

Dewdrops dancing free
Naked, bathed in morning light
Fairies on the lawn

sry, uhhh...... yes i will accept three types of hiakus! and btw i ADORE these poems....hiakus....w/e

Sluvious, i cant accept your poems, b/c you have broken the rules.

oh bob.

*searching for you*

oceans around me
but i cannot find you there
alone i still search

brokenmisery, unless im mistaken (and i might be wrong), i think you need to check your syllables

Yeah...the second line has eight.

and you need an apostrophe in "it's" for the last line

i was just wondering.. in the prizes it says you only r/c.. does that mean you just read && comment or you rate && comment? hehe..

it'd imagine that a comment almost requires a read =P

:P i'd prefer if she rated and commented! lol..

it means rate and comment, yes

lol, okayy, just checking :D
