welcome

hello. :) thanks for dropping by this particular haiku poem squidoo lens.

here, i post some of the haikus from my haiku poem blog. i'm just learning to write these, so i have a lot of improving to do. nonetheless, i hope that you'll find these haiku poem examples helpful, or at least a bit entertaining. :)

also, please feel free to drop by my primary haiku poem blog. :) the link is in my bio. i have more haikus there, and i try to get in at least one new one per day.

thanks again for dropping by.

just one more quick thing... :) 

i find that i enjoy writing haikus the most when i work within the 3 line, 5-7-5 syllable structure, so that's what i do. of course, that's by no means mandatory when it comes to writing these short poems. i do this by choice.

**** update!

i've changed my mind. :D now, i take the 17 syllable structure as more of a guideline, but if i can have a haiku with even fewer syllables, that would be better. i try to go for a one breath poem. still using three lines though. :)

following this path
has led me
nowhere

    I love your haiku verses!!! I've opened a lot of pages and read a lot of rubbish until I run into you. Keep writing them girl, you are talented...

    I just started writing myself, and here's mine:

    Scattered dirty socks
    Empty nail polish vial
    Not ours, mine and yours.

    I don't know if it's any good, but I like it!

    Best Regards ;)
