Even on a spring day
crickets, lightening bugs are
emerging to soon.

[LonePalm]

How about these three?
The first two are the same haiku in French and English. I wrote them in my head at a YES concert.

Nous sommes du soleil
Les visages de les enfants
La main de Dieu.

We are of the sun
The faces of the children
God's hand in us all.

In our darkest night
May God bless America
The land of the free.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
LonePalm, le Républicain du verre cassé (The Broken Glass Republican)

kafun-me-yo!
kono-tsuma-no-hana
dai-bakuchiku

You bastard pollen!
My wife's nose suddenly is
a large firecracker.

[Veto!]

Garden a big mess
Many weeds, no sun shining
Flowers feel hopeless.

[zeugma]

Avast! Why fight, ye knaves,
O'er Pirate talk and haikus?
Two birds with one stone.

LOL

[MediaMole]

International?
Five Seven Five is July
for most of the world.

Month, day then the year
is an American quirk.
Five July, ought five.

Celebrate today?
Sure. I am patriotic.
F. U. old europe.

Rain drenched day in May.
Yacking on the Internet,
mint julips at six.

[skinkinthegrass]

THANKS..interesting. :)

[skinkinthegrass]

thanks..it helps to understand the "definitions/ideas" behind the form.

[skinkinthegrass]

Nope sorry. Nothing compares with "Talk Like A Pirate Day".

True...this and/or a good Opui/ZOT! (they're so rare these days. :) are almost as good...

Haikus from the wag
Tailoring the doggerel
Go from bard to verse.

[Yaelle]

A California Haiku

we stumbled through sand
poor but manana we work
now doctor is free

[ErnBatavia]

Jacko does NAMBLA
from the grounds of Neverland
Sneddon getting warm.

[Felicity Fahrquar]

Very nice!

Where's Jack Deth when we need him? He's always got some choice catku...

[SortaBichy]

i'm a lady who likes to freep
to conclusions i like to leap
an afternoon spent lurking
instead of cleaning or working
is fun, i learn and its cheap!
