online today!AHA! (5-7-5)
aha! at last I found you
sitting on my nose
About this poem:
Senryu(A short Japanese style poem, similar to haiku in structure, however, senryu tend to be about human foibles while haiku tend to be about nature, and senryu are often cynical or darkly humorous and satiric while haiku are serious)
PROLUTION
all parts of the body and brain,”
the professor beamed
at his rapt audience
“will be replaceable.”
“PROMAN will pursue
his ever-adjustable programs
forever.
He will affix to and discard from
his body, as required,
all that is in need of renewal.”
"He will function faultlessly
as per The Blueprint.
‘Imperfect’ man and ‘polluted’ Earth
will at last be done with.”
“Does that mean there’ll be no more
Father Xmas?” a student asked, aghast.
“Sorry,” the professor dourly replied;
“no chimneys likely.”
Haiku 5-7-5
nasturtiums in a vase
passage of the day
About this poem:
ah to walk the cool corridors of elegance in Summer
Nature Haiku 5.7.5.
a bird sang sweetly
despite the city chaos
nature will survive
~~~~~
a single raindrop
disturbed the glistening pond
then reflections danced
~~~~~
a sudden shower
the adults ran for shelter
children love puddles
~~~~~
About this poem:
Nature.
The Outsider View
The game of connecting dots
Constellations twinkle
The last bird singing
In the chorus at sunrise
Singing from his heart
The portrait wanted
To move outside the frame
Something new to try
Wrapped in quilt of dreams
From the fog of sub-conscience
Words precipitate
Waves wash away my steps
A blanc page to start over
Leaves swayed by the breeze
The lost outsider
Bumped into the world’s problems
Bruises and scratches
About this poem:
A random mixMorning haiku
a woman walks a small dog
courage for the day
a tree peeling bark
summers come and winters go
little insects watch
About this poem:
staying by the beachWar Haiku - another take
Orders followed, carnage left
Shadows of the dead
In sunflower field
An abandoned violin
Refugees fleeing
Born for the combat
Blasts of gun fire, fierce ambush
Tin soldiers at war
About this poem:
Following Ocean’s stepsOceanzest 5.7.5. Haiku Challenge
I open and then
I fold up my umbrella.
…………
First one, then another
Leaf trembles
On the apple tree
………
You smile.
Far away the bird takes off
From the slow ice floe
About this poem:
the best i could write. I never was goed in haikuMusic Haiku
Wolfgang Amadè Mozart
distant violin
an old piano
broken keys and tangled wire
good wine, sweet music
About this poem:
Music HaikuOcean’s haiku challenge-2
Dreams transform into clouds
Sparkling drops return
No air left to breathe
Flowing sky following you
Vacuum for me
Locked in the closet
The skeleton felt confined
Those dirty secrets
The night was dragging
Nightmares kept coming back
Rooster did not care
