Sup. This is a thread for all of you who are interested in the Japanese art of haiku. Or poetry in general. "But" (you may say) "I's not a poet-type, what can I get from it?" You don't have to be, or ...not really. See, the haiku is really simple and anyone can make one. All you have to remember is that a haiku is made up of three lines. The first line is five syllables, the second line is seven syllables, and the third line is five syllables. The topic can be whatever you want it to be.
All the haiku I post will be of my own mind, unless I give credit where it is due. And without further adu, haiku:
Stretched across the plain
Flying insects of all kinds
Searching for a feast.
Apple blossoms green
Soon to be ready flowers
Summer bares rich fruit.
Flying to the wall
Circles the country China
Sparrow to its nest.
Wasp yello and black
Flying over grass and me
They gather in pines.
Barron and war torn
I came expecting little
I find even less.
