I love writing Haikus. My best friend taught me how to write them. He said ' It's not that hard. All you have to do is learn.' So I did and I fell in love with them. Here's my first Haiku:

Clear like Crystals
It is clear, you know
that what some don't know, we do
albeit, they will.

Alone

I beg and I plead,
But my cries go unanswered.
They just ignore me.

@ s9b1
That's a nice poem but it isn't a haiku! A haiku has a specific syllable count:

5 syllables
7 syllables
5 syllables

@Skeleton_Pilot.
Totally agree.
Haiku's must follow that rule.
Somehow don't.

Oops!
Totally agree.
Haiku's must follow that rule.
Somehow poem's don't.

If it refuses
To follow the haiku rule,
It's not a haiku.

Summer

Sun starts through dry leaves,
trees beg to shadow and shade,
cracked ground thirsts for rain.

I don't get this topic a lot, but I do some as like the example in the first page.

Like a river,
Like the wind,
you can't feel them,
you can't talk to them,
but they do talk to you,
they flow inside of you,
make relax your mind,
and love the sweet,
that you will never forget!


I really like your poem, but unfortunately, it isn't a haiku. You are welcome to come here to post haikus!

As a welcome back,
I'll take a picture of me!
...Of me in the nude.


Ah, uh, Acmed friend

Chocolate is the theme, hmmmmmm?

The swirling river
Flows like a silky current;
Chocolate tastes good.


Is chocolate three syllables, or two? :/

Lol... I'm sure it's a three-syllable word, but I've never heard it pronounced that way! =P
