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

Wind, and a flame blown;
the light leaves: just us and night
Alone, you and I.

Not too sure about the punctuation...

The darkness takes me
I get chewed up, and spit out
I guess I'm too light

I'm just too awesome.

Who turned out the lights?
Now I can't see anything.
Where did the light go?

Wait, has it been judged yet? I was looking and I didn't see it and I just wanted to make sure.

Blind obscenity
Comes and whispers in my ear,
"You are not alone".

'Twas what I though. "Sigh" so much time spent checking this thread.

I keep thinking to submit one for the Darkness round, but then I remember I'm judging it!

Darkness, no light shines
There is nothing in the void
No light can be seen

(for the darkness theme)

Blindness
Why can I not see?
Is it due to my eyes?
This is my new world!

Why can I not see?
Can this be due to my eyes?

It's so dark in here
Very dark in here, it is
Oh wait, I'm the judge

Sorry about the wait, I've been having some computer troubles I only just cleared up a few hours ago.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to judge until tomorrow, assuming my computer works. It's a bit late right now for judging.

And my haiku.

Darkness looms ahead
It's threatening message heard
I guess this is it
