edition #66
Haiku of the last 13 letters [N thru Z] of the alphabet.
Traditionally haiku are three-line poems, the first and last lines containing 5 syllables, and the middle line with 7 syllables.
N
Never say never Not to spouse, child or friend Now's the time to live |
O
Oysters tummies ache Only to produce such gems O'er the necks we don |
P
Pet kitties come near Perhaps to show affection Probably to scratch |
Q
Quicksand is lethal Quite like oatmeal disguised Queer stuff it can be |
R
Rain falls gently now Regenerating the land Roses bloom again |
S
So is life we live Sewing oats far and nearby Storing seed of man |
T
Tumblin' tumbleweeds Thrive wherever they roam Trippin 'cross the plains |
U
Unity's at hand United still we will stand Unleash the voice; vote! |
V
Verily expressed Volumes can be heard by words Venturing beliefs |
W
Water I see now Waves to the South and the East Water's tides rush in |
X
"X" the abhorrent "X" distasteful and the like "X" marks where you stand |
Y
Yew trees; biblical Yonder I see life's path end Yes, He'll accept me. |
Z
Zoom zoom zoom I hear Zealous commercial Mazda Zoning me outright |
My first thirteen letters' Haiku [A thru M] Here
Those are great, Annie! I love the water one!
ReplyDeleteWell done!! I was wondering how you were going to pull off "X!"
ReplyDeleteq and r are my favorites
ReplyDeleteOh, Anni, those are great! I really loved Zoom Zoom Zoom, but there wasn't a clinker in the lot. The oysters were especially poignant.
ReplyDeleteI like P and Z. One made me laugh and the other made me think and I like doing those things.
ReplyDeleteThat was so creative!
ReplyDeleteAnni,
ReplyDeleteThese are brilliant. You are so good at this. I never had much success.
Thanks so much for creating my new design. It's lovely and you did a terrific job.
Blessings,
Mary

ReplyDeleteHi Anni, hands down to you. I mean, you're so good at these cool haiku(s). Good job!
ReplyDeleteHappy TT =)
Love your haiku's, what a creative mind !
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day, Anni.
Q was my favorite -- probably because I'm a Scrabble player and now what a bitch it can be to come up with ANY Q words, much less ones that have the right number of syllables and make sense in context! This TT represents a lot of talent and work. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for visiting my TT.
ReplyDeleteWow...you're good at those! lol I wouldn't even know where to start!! I had never even heard of Haiku until I started blogging and some of the bloggers were doing them as a weekly challenge.
ReplyDeleteI just read your previous post as well....thanks so much for explaining how to do the comments box to show up this way. It's something I've never thought of doing but one of these days I may give it a try:-)
Thank you again for my new header dear Anni, when I have more time I'll put it up:-) xoxo
Please come by my blog, I have an award for you.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to add that I linked to your article from 13 Muslim Greeting Cards
ReplyDeleteDid you write these yourself, Anni? They're so lovely and clever!
ReplyDeleteStop by and visit my TT when you get a moment...if you're not too zapped by the heat and humidity. :)
