A Haiku is a Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.

Well, that said, heres the rules:

1) The Haiku must be original (no plagarizing)!
2) It must fit the weeks theme
3) It must be submitted before the deadline
4) It must be submitted for the contest (no using works previously written)
5) One Submission per user
6) The Same User cannot win twice in a row (but there welcome to submit!)

Hopefully oneday the winner could get a merit...

The Deadline will always be a Wednsday, so the deadline for the first theme will be Wednsday, September 2. The theme is The Pond

(special thanks to 'thisisnotanalt'

I will not love you.
Even if you were the last,
in this vile world.

First of all, thank you for the complement on word choice. Now, let's see how this one turns out

Murdered paradise,
Before, pulchritudinous,
I, alone, despair.

For those wondering, pulchritudinous is a 5-syllable word for beautiful. I found it in a dictionary and found it interesting

If you ever need me to judge, I'll be more than happy.

You got good descriptive words here, but there seems to be no mention of a pond.


Fair enough. I can't expect you to judge if you can't see the link. Basically mine was about the flowers/lillies decomposing beautifully in the pond. Hopefully next time I submit it won't seem so obscure. I seem to have this trouble often in this thread.

The symbol

Lost and abandoned
You are a blatant symbol
Of mankind's demise

Thought I'd try with a title, might look better^^ I wasn't sure if you meant last living being on earth or last human person, I opted for the second one.
