Did you see that? Check out that alliteration! We call that kind of awesome 'consonance.'

Anyway! The haiku contest has inspired me to create all sorts of silliness in the way of haiku! Then I thought, "But wait! Why should we only have haiku during this joyous festivous!?" It was then that I, in my infinite genius, decided to open this forum! Come here, enjoy the haiku of others, write your own haiku, share haiku that you've found.

What do I write my haiku about?!
Anything and everything! If you can fit it in a haiku you should write it and post it! As long as your haiku follows the haiku pattern, you're all set!

How do I write a haiku?
Haiku are measured in syllables. The first line is 5 syllables, the second line is 7 syllables, and the third line is 5 syllables. (if you have too few or too many, don't worry. We won't judge you too harshly! This is just about fun)

Ah ha ha~! I should have checked the main forum sooner! I've been engrossed with the event forum I've neglected to come here. sweatdrop
Lesse a quick haiku off the top of my head:

Zelda Spirit Tracks
Has consumed my entire life
Must go take shower...

XD Wow that was pretty good considering it's off the top of my head. (And no, I don't need to go take one, I am so fresh and so clean clean.)

lol Oh Angel! That was awesome. See? They're super easy especially right off the top of your head!

Haiku are much fun
They can be very silly
So easy to do

Ode to pajamas
Blue and soft and lovely
Wear them all the time

Is lovely two syllables or three? I think it's three but I can't figure out if I'm crazy or not!! Input?

Love is the stillness
The heart that will stop beating
For a moment's time

Ooh. I like making haikus. Lol. I make them when I'm really bored especially in class. I want to be able to make on in Japanese soon though. XD
Anyway here are some of mine:

Date Late
The clock keeps ticking
And here I sit, still waiting
Until the sun sets.

Innocent Seduction
I burn a bright pink;
And you continue closer
‘til I breathe no more.

A Stupid Haiku
Look at me: I’m bored.
And all I can do is write
This stupid Haiku.


I have more in my deviantart if you guys want to check it out. XD http://realmeryl16.deviantart.com

Like Sora said - highlight and pick a color. If you want a color that's not offered you need to know the hex code and input it... If you have no idea what I'm talking about I could do it for you. What color would you like?

Opening my shop
on Etsy will be super
I need moneyz nao.

@Mugoi: D: OMGosh, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. I hope tomorrow will be better for you.
