Haiku entry
Based on a personal event. R.I.P.

Brightened smiles meet
Euphoric friendship elates
Death, the cruel jokester..

General poetry entry will be submitted in the next few days, hopefully

Oh, how I loathe thee
For I cannot hold pen
I suck at haiku

Er...Sal..your middle line has only 6 syllables

@ Iswilliams90 - you cannot create your own themes haha you have to use the ones given
---

on a personal note this is the first Haiku I have ever written and I am not sure if I understood the structure correctly

Structure is fine..just keep in mind those punctuations

This is for the Haiku contest.

Falling to the ground
Shackles before so binding
I am free again

Give me mah elephant.

This poem is for the General Poetry contest

A bond has shattered
A bond has broke
Please come and hug me
I'm a handsome bloke

-This is for the Haiku contest

The day she left my mind bled
Pain in head and heart
I feel as though I have died

Thanks for listening

Sushi Cat at mall
Dog comes and steals wife away

Haiku Contest Entry

A boy and his dog
The dog was taken away
Sadness struck the boy

This is for the Haiku Contest.

Stretching, reaching, gasp...
He watches the bridge burn down
and chains of steel snap.

So is the "elephant is a prize" going to be a one time thing, or will it happen again?

I totally missed the theme. My bad. I didn't even notice it.

Re-entry for haiku:

Why'd you do it then?
You left me out here alone!
With broken bonds...
