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

Why is it so dark?
I am closer than you think...
Just open your eyes.

Eyes start burning up
light creeps in from everywhere
Pure whiteness fills you.

There is mine, i think it is kinda weird.

buzzing bulbs brighten
while intangible forces
enter my dark eyes

Why does it really matter? And I would assume judging would be by dudeguy since his last time got skiped.

Not sure. In the way the order goes me, but since I judged for him, it could be me.

We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Theme is Light. Get cracking, if you want, of course.

Light is so epic
Not as epic as Nightmare
Give me a merit
(Kidding about the merit part)

I think Nughtmare's is more of a joke then a serious one.

Light has run from us
leaving all in misery
will it not come forth?

misery DOES have 3 syllables doesn't it?
I'm too bored to stop writing bad poetry... Sorry :P

Yep misery dose have 3 syllables so your haiku passes the 5-7-5 thingy. And I thinkthat one is pretty good.

Oh what would we do
If we were without the light
Life would be so dull



It's okay I guess.

Nughtmare? I'm offended, chitown.
And if you didn't like it, here's another:
Oh Dangit Kansas
You screwed my bracket
I had you winning.

Should I simply remove the theme and page number from the title or something??

Light of Gold

The insubstantial
glint which carries so much weight
O Lux Aurumque
