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

First line is 6 syllables.

Also, try not to post haiku's that aren't on topic. Even posts that aren't on topic here are frowned upon. But still, I'll let this one slide.

Judging is that much harder.

Gleaming in the sun
soaring high through cold blue skies
trails of smoke follow

I'm going to try a different placing system. 5 places, and an adjective or something for the others, Get it? Sorry about my partial inactivity.

You Wish

Kirby998!

I like Italy
RING RING RING RING RING RING RING
My Private Jet please?

If this is true... then... I HATE YOU!

Where's Your Inhaler?!?!

Floyd!

air is clear today
no aircrafts polluting it
no asthma attacks

I hope you meant "through".

chitown!

Flying thru the sky
above the city at night
perfectly landing

Sheeyea. Spell Check.

It flies with glee. So do we.

"Surrounded by sky,
Roflcopter flies with glee,
SOI SOI SOI SOI SOI."

My noob meter is shaking out of control. Just kidding. What does the last line mean, I don't know.

Twice the charm. Or not.

I have no idea What Jefferson is. A plane? *slack jaw*

Is this Haiku here?!?!?

DrElmer

Jets soar through the air

But who knows for sure?

Well where else could it be?

Wood (5th Place)

adios194

Flying higher now.
Killing innocent people!
I call it useless.

Some would disagree. First line is good.

Bronze (4th place)

EnterOrion!

Hot exhaust beams fast,
The jet begins to takeoff,
It booms off the deck.

Reminds me of an aircraft carrier. Booms nicely puts it together.

Cockpit (3rd place)

Freakenstein!

"Scraping the heavens,
Man's bird flies to its great niche,
Loads, then swoops again."

Scraping the heavens. Ow.

CoPiliot (2nd place)

Parsat!

Man's hubris in flight
Slicing through the virgin air
An ancient cloud fades

Fits your standards nicely, Parsat. Big words. 2nd place.

THE PILOT IN CHARGE!

Crab65

Whoosh! Zoom! Flash! Whiz! Whoom!
Spiralling into yonder
Deity of the air

Onomatopoeia. Nice. Simple, yet complex. Separate, yet together.

Go to a mod for your merit. Congrats.

As for the rest of you...

HAPPY HAIKUING!
