Hi to Haiku's.

Jan 06, 2006 10:46

Just chanced upon Haikus/Senryus... a Japanese style of poetry in the form of three lines; first line has five syllables, second seven and third five again. They are primarily used to depict a particular emotion/object/scenery.

Am sure have flaunted all rules other than the syllable guideline, but what the heck... it's fun!

Tsunami:

Pleasant beachside stroll-
Overtly flirty stray wave
Soars skyward, engulfs

Tears:

Salty like the sea
Trickling slender lukewarm stream-
Sorrow begets thee

Beer:

Frothy foam, bubbles-
Elixir for life's troubles
Bitter yet so sweet
