The streaming flowers blow

by my sunlit face

Arriving too late for spring.

Yup, lots of fun, Harsha.

You sure started a trend here.

It was waiting to

explode -- you provided the match!

Now, you're matchless

(and peerless -- as always!)

Love

Dan

The cry of the beast

Moving the soft forest leaves;

An abandoned howl!

The heart of poets

release the flow of darkness.

Pain spills into words.

Some words to share...

>From my understanding of Haiku... traditional Japanese Haiku is a verse, made

up of three unrhymed lines of poetry with 17 syllables...five in the first

line...7 in the second line...and 5 in the third line...and it relates to

nature.........But American Haiku...does not restrict the writer to these

numbers or this theme...My hand seems to be most comfortable with the

traditional Japanese verse containing the 5 7 and 5 syllable variation and

has been for awhile now......but techniques can be tricky when it comes to

writing......just as it is in music and playing an instrument...Too much

concentration on technique can cause the heart to lose the flow of the words

or the music.......I love Haiku very much and am grateful for this chance

here on the list.. to express it as well as read it from otehrs..............

:)
