2022 Fall Haiku Contest - now until November 30!

[BonsaiRae]

Leaves fly by swiftly
A cat sits in the window
Tree waits quietly

 

[HorseloverFat]

I guess I'll try this contest out here it goes.


First frost glistening on me
I'm. So sad to see
My colorful leaves leaving me

This is inverted, mi amigo.

 

[Kanorin]

Few leaves still clinging
Howling winds send them sailing
Now the tree can rest

 

[Calnicky]

Deep in the canyon
Cool air signals coming fall
Guide’s favorite time

 

[Michigan Tree Murderer]

Became Bonsai Nut
Could win free scissors
Everyone is friendly

 

[ShadyStump]

Went hiking with my dog today for the first time in TOO LONG.

Colorado fall
The winds bite, the sun ignites
Oh, beautiful ache!

 

[Woocash]

I’ve been gone too long
Though I check in time to time
Hope everyone’s well

 

[HENDO]

Trees begin to sleep
But move, shiver in the wind
I am still awake.

 

[shimbrypaku]

The mist hangs low today
Like a blanket covering the cold earth
Sun burns the mist away

 

[HorseloverFat]

I’ve been gone too long
Though I check in time to time
Hope everyone’s well

Holy crap, Luke!

It's been like two years!!!?

Did your house float away?
(That's a joke, I hope your house is fine )

How are you??? What happened????

You can PM me if you:d like.

 

[Gustavo Martins]

A Japanese type of poem,
in a foreign language written
an unconventional jigsaw.

 

[Gabler]

Japanese haiku,

Translates poorly to English;

It’s fun but sounds flat.

 

[JudyB]

dry leaves unfurling
fragrant blossoms float inhale
sipping breathing tea



^This from my old thread started a few years ago, called Haiku You Nice efforts in here, it's a long read but some good thoughts.

I'm not much of a poet, but when these haiku threads pop up I can't help myself.
It's so fun, and you get to see new sides of everyone.

Dying leaves fall now
Cold and snow soon will follow
In spring life returns

Stars shine on the path
A full moon hangs above me
Magic fills the air

 

[amcoffeegirl]

Broken things to mend
There are some parts and pieces
No glue will hold it

Tips hat to the crew
Black sails sway and the ship rocks
Drinks rum every day

This was fun!

 

[JudyB]

Glad to see you back @JudyB . I hope all is well

All ok here, thanks for asking! Glad you are still posting, you are always a ray of sunshine... except about cold weather LOL.

 

[BillsBayou]

Rolling hills, wide plains
Sun warms, rain cools, a car starts
Suburban bonsai

 

[Sansokuu]

Tree Dahlia buds,
Will you bloom for me soon, please?
Frost soon wilts my dream.
