Haiku and Hokku
Folder:
Haiku I.
Winter breathes coldly
A rose on new-fallen snow
Beauty in nature
White carpet without
Inside, the dog sleeps soundly
Dreaming of Spring days
Rain upon the window
Soothing, sweetly singing soft
As I write about it
II.
Family stay near
Life's storms draw close together
What calm drives apart
Special together
As I concentrate on work
She watches TV
Fearing the future
She wraps her arms around me
And holds me tightly
III.
Alluring water-front
Holding magnificent crafts
Warships now at peace
Men of foul language
Cargo brought ashore today
The smell of the sea
Moonlight on the waves
Horns of vessels passing by
A lonely gull cries
Although I am too old
Although I am too old fashioned to like *most* of the haiku written outside of the 5/7/5 pattern, I make an exception for these. They are absolutely and undoubtedly brilliant, and I hope you will be working on some more soon, as this form seems to fit your observations and experiences. Bravo on a great job!
