Tag: haiku
I started writing haiku in my junior high creative writing class. After high school, though, when I started studying the Beat Poets, and Kerouac in particular, my fondness for this art form grew. I tend to focus mostly on the 5-7-5 style, but occasionally I explore further.
Today’s haiku
just a few dark clouds
a rain squall abruptly forms
soon the sun returns
Tonight’s Haiku
darkness descending
covering faded blossoms
so ephemeral
Today’s Haiku
a moment of rain
then the sun bursts forth
what does the future hold?
Tonight’s Haiku: April 24, 2025
with hints of purple
flowers changing through the spring
new wonders each day
A Morning Haiku
cherry blossoms fall
as spring's skies begin to warm
free of all our fears
Tonight’s Haiku
sunlight descending
brightening western mountains
quiet witnesses
Tonight’s Haiku
another spring day
cherry blossoms scattering
fading memories
Wrote this one early this morning. Created this image in Canva.
Anyway, thanks for reading.
Early morning haiku
sleep’s evasive
the early morning darkness
hiding raindrops
Yeah, I should be asleep,
I’d prefer to be asleep
Yet that is not
My reality.
Monday Morning Haiku
morning birdsong
dawn's light hidden by the clouds
and this gentle rain
