Haiku Challenge Thursday


A Haiku is a three line poem with 5 syllables the first line, 7 syllables the second line and 5 again for the last line. My Dad is a BIG Haiku guy, he loves them and many of us have encouraged him to publish them in a book. I do it randomly and rarely but always enjoy the process. It usually starts with an idea or a moment in life I want to capture.

Haiku Challenge participants...just write your haiku in the comments being sure to include the THREE WORDS for the week.

Please email me a Haiku Challenge if you would like to be a Guest Challenger. Include the three words and your starting Haiku poem.

HAIKU TWO:

Good Lord I love food!
Bacon, blue cheese, chocolate
(But not together?)

THIS WEEKS WORDS TO INCLUDE ARE: love, blue, not

    I bleed and my heart
    pumps red. I have not a true
    love, but my heart's blue.

  3. I posted this to Facebook, but apparently Arian Foster's hammy now has a Twitter account. If only I had one, then I would post my Hiaku there.
