As you know by now, I am taking a very loose approach to these prompts. So, instead of 5 minutes of writing, I did 5 minutes of searching. What did I search for? Well, I mentioned in a previous post when the prompt actually was
That I did try my hand on writing haikus a little while back. And I think now is as good as any time to share them. So, here goes...
Petals fly
covering the grass
Spring is gone
Is it snow?
Grass covered in white
Petals died
Cherry blossoms glow
Light, surrounded by shadows
Summer is close - soon
I wrote these exactly at a time like now. Spring. I was sitting on our balcony
watching the white petals float through the air in the wind. The first and last haikus are written in traditional 5-7-5 format whereas the middle two are modern 3-5-3. I hope you don't hate them.
Here are some magnolia and cherry or other blossoms to go along with the haiku.
And with that - I hope you'll have a fabulous rest of your day!
Cheers,
