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

Day and night whoo hoo
The darkness is everywhere
I can't see nothing.

When Mother Nature
Casts her blush on hushed waters
We breathe the shy dusk

Before the sun sets
Under the horizon's edge
The sky becomes dusk

When the day sun sets
Under the horizon's edge
Bright sky becomes dusk



Sorry, I switched from editing it in the text box to editing it on paper and forgot to put my finished version in here before hitting submit. My apologies.

With partial darkness
Brightness flows away today
Between night and day

The gleaming sunset
Nocturnal creatures awake
Night sets upon us

Spent life in your feet
The old man peers at the sun;
It's dusk for you too...

Intently made as if it was the old man talking to the sun on the last line. In any case, even if the dialogue like figure at the ned is not perceived the haiku makes its point remarkably. I'm glad about that one ^^.

Sorry, that'd seem more appropriate.

Conflagration ends
Vulnerable time stands still
Honour the gloaming

Day and night they meet
And have the greatest affair
And then dusk is born

That's my try.
