I saw her in the forest

A dream spurred on by
song, as the elvish princess
spurred on her own horse.

Happy Friday the 13th

This haiku should've
technically been written
for yesterday, though.

Okay, NOW Happy Friday the 13th

Today was neither
lucky nor unlucky. Still,
it's not over yet. >:D

Valentine's Day

Some say ignorance
is bliss. That's not true when it's
Valenine's Day, though.

That Lonesome Road

You may be walking
alone from A to B but
at least B has promise.

The Vacation

A vacation in
all regards: this thread gets less
fruit which gives it life.

Boca Raton, Florida

Sitting under the
palm trees, I can't stop asking
where all the snow went.

Broken Lawnmower

It's some time before
I realize it's my father
snoring. Where's MY room?

That's Just Un-American

For the last time: I
love this country. That's why we
should make it better.

Gardeners and License Plates

Sight-seeing collides
with childish games. There are
more cars than gardens.

You've got Mail

...and I've got a dog
whose mouth is clamped on my leg.
But never mind that.

...but then again, I
upload haikus here roughly
thirty times per month.

One I made for a school assignment:

White blankets the earth.
Each barren tree reaches out;
Dark, skeletal frames.

Today I'm starting another series in which I name my haikus for pieces of music I've sung in choir and/or played in orchestra over the last few years. Wish me luck!

I Got Rhythm

Expressing it in
a haiku is hard, but you
gotta trust me here...

In our darkest hour
when we are neither quite alive
nor are we dead yet

I think it's nature
to weigh life from the shadow
deciding it's worth

Put faith in one's life
When some one is in darkness
the difference weighs..

Hope all is well. :)

Hey guys. Sorry to cut that previous series I was working on so short, but I realized that most of the pieces I've learned for orchestra (and some for chorus too) don't even have English titles. So, back to deliciously arbitrary haikus, I suppose!

The Birth

Sacrificing the
womb's warmth, I'm caked in blood as
I crawl out of bed.

I certainly see
you rolling. Trying to stop
myself from hating.

...but seriously:
haikus are five-seven-five,
not five-three-thirteen.

"I'm rolling. They are
hating and patrolling. I
may be a scoundrel"

...would have the correct
number of syllables and
grammar. You're welcome.

Don't take this post too
seriously though. I'm just
messing with you, bro. ;P
