Haiku From My Past

I was looking over some of my old papers from my writing class and found some Haiku that I had to write in class. (This is a Japanese poem, and is always three lines long, with line one having 5 syllables, line two having 7 syllables, and line three having 5 syllables.)

When I am reading novels little snippets of description would paint these little pictures in my mind. Then in class I learned what they are called...haiku .

I thought a few I wrote would be good to share, to start out my new blog!

In forest glades dewy,
Misty and shrouded in fog,
Rain fairies caper.


The silver moon shone,
Holding the lovers captive
In its cool embrace.


The gray ghostly fog
Slithered over the mountains
With creeping fingers.


The icy waters
Pooled beneath the waterfall,
Fern edged and mossy.


The floppy rag doll
Lolled, all dirty and tattered,
But most dearly loved.

I guess that's enough for now. I really will put a poem on here, soon.
