Haiku. Words. Story

in Blockchain Poets3 years ago (edited)

I can't remember the last time I wrote a haiku. It's been way too long. Haiku may look like a simple form of poetry but it's actually difficult to write. Telling a story in a 5 7 5 format isn't as ordinary as it looks.

I have three here. Take a look and tell me what you think.

I enter a cave
I see death staring at me
I then strangle it

“Say you're mine,” he pants
I gasp as I grab the sheets
“I'm yours,” I whimper

Under the dark clouds
We dance for our forefathers
And offer prayers

I loved all of them
And with the pics it made sense
You are good at this 😊

Thanks. You flatter me. LOL. In slowly getting my writing back.

I've been trying to remember where I knew you from. Discord maybe. I can't place it.

I really liked your haikus, especially the first one. I agree that it is not easy to write them, so the merit is even greater!

Hey beautiful, you are back? This thrills me beyond words; to read your writing again. ❤️

Yes, I think I am. LOL. I've missed writing. Can't stay away for too long.

Welcome. The space is yours to have. Indulge

Very cool haiku, I really loved the first and the third one, I am in the process of learning to write haiku is a bit difficult so the merit for you, I hope to publish one soon, a hug and happy day ♥

The more haiku we can get here, the better!
