share your Haikus

Postby glolb » Tue Dec 17, 2024 7:39 am

hi everyone!
i thought i'd start a thread for sharing original haikus!

i’ve found writing haikus in my head really useful for when i’m stuck on a thought, and i wanted to share some, and encourage others to write and share their own!
you can give an explanation around them, what they mean to you, why you wrote them etc; or just post your haiku and run!
heres some of mine :mrgreen:

June baring its teeth
as May steadies, breathlessly
I follow the run
Some years behind me
I was put here in her place
I didn’t know her
It was really cold
slow growing dandelion
caught under the snow

id love to read other folks haikus, i think theyre a lot of fun and very cathartic to write! :mrgreen: :thumbup:

jaekelopterus
back a while the crocodile
from brackish to fresh

a haiku about my very favourite extinct species, the eurypterids (also known as sea scorpians)!
jaekelopterus was the biggest of them, the size of a crocodile. he was very handsome; he looked like this

I honestly haven't written any haikus in English, ever, this thread really made me consider trying it if I find some inspiration ... Although I always have a hard time keeping things short (which is why I rarely ever write haikus).

me on eldemore | my characters | my lair | short novels & comic pages | my poetry thread

You know how it haunts you,
hunts you in the fog
- a mere shadow of the past.
You move onwards to the great unknown,
yet it never slips your mind
- the things you thought would last.

An eternity in the dark.
