Last week I posted my first attempt at “Haiku” (to rave reviews I might add) and I was encouraged to continue with what is “a natural talent” for the art..So naturally, once again, I’m not taking any responsibility, what-so-ever, if you should not like the following, (but of course you’re going to like them, as you are all fine and discerning patrons of the arts) please let me know and I will fabricate pass-on the names of the blogs from which the aforementioned encouragement and “critical acclaim” originated, and you may express your opinion(s), as to their questionable judgement regarding “Haiku” directly, to these obviously kind, sensitive and sincere and of course knowledgable, judges of my inane inate talent for the ancient and honorable tradition that is, “Haiku!”
After reading the above introduction I have come up with a mathematical equation for the veracity of said introduction..x+y-a=bs. (bs=90%)
Tuesday awaits you
face it with dignity when
the sun rises new,
Jake.

The Seasons In Haiku
[ • ]
Summer sizzles hot
While winter chills to the soul
Spring and fall do not.
………………………………………………………..
Leaves abound from trees
Rest on the dry browning grass
Wait now winter’s breeze.
…………………………………………………………..
Whirling swirling fans
Attempt a cooling motion
Beer is sold in cans.
…………………………………………………………….
Mountains white with snow
Beckon skiers to the slope
I seek the fire glow.

How weird is it that tonight on my flight home I was thinking about writing haikus……and then here you post a bunch. Are we twins separated at birth????
Great minds think alone, oops alike, yeah, great minds think alike…. Have you done Haikus, I don’t remember any from you? But anyway, go for it. I’m sure they’ll be great. ________________________________
I know!!!! I have not done any for years so TODAY may be the day. I have a couple in me….
There is no doubt in my mind about that. Oh and say “hi” to Koo for me…hahaha
ugh…that was beyond bad.
Oh, you have no idea how far beyond bad, I can go..
I don’t want to know!
Those are very amusing haiku – and adding the rhyme is a nice touch to emphasis your sense of humour.
Thank you so much, you are very perceptive and kind as well..Thanks again..
