A haiku is a Japanese poem of three lines. 1st line: 5 syllables. 2nd line: 7 syllables. 3rd: 5 syllables.
The theme for your haiku: water. Feel free to interpret water as you so wish…anything goes in Creative Writing!
I’ll start…
I could not tell rain
Rain from the wells of my eyes
It’s raining tonight
Yay for depressing haikus!
Water’s memory
It remembers everything -
Swim, drink, wash, cry, drown.
And I liked yours too, although a little spooky. I liked the contrast between the beautiful image of a red gown, or a red flower – and the harsh reality of a bleedind nose.
Riding waves of pain
Sudden gush of red silk
Welcome my daughter
Now that was somewhat hard for me to write because I wanted to convey the mixed feeling of wonder and pain of giving birth, and I’m not sure I managed that well! Again I liked your poem.
Swim like my dead fish.
He drowned, if fish can do that.
Rest in peace, Dexter.
