30 Day Poetry Challenge Day 4: Haiku
Day 4: Write a haiku (a three line poem where the first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, and the third line has 5 syllables). Haikus are often about nature, but yours can be about anything.
I love Allan Wolf's Haiku Stickies: 100 Haiku to Write & Leave Behind! Reminds me of my homeroom Haiku Ninjas last year...spreading the joy of haiku around the school!
Lightning bolts sizzle.
Yank slumbering babes from dreams
of cloud-filled blue skies.
---inspired by lightning storm that woke me at 4:30 this morning
Cupcakes and ice cream
candy, soda, frosted flakes
all cause cavities.
---prompt from Haiku Stickies
Cold snowflakes shimmer
Faces press on windowpane
Silent white wonder
---prompt from Haiku Stickies
