The 16th Haiku Prompt Challenge!
For a refresher or how to write Haiku in English click here. But you can use whatever Haiku style you want to. As long as you, do a Haiku.
For Tips and Guidelines refreshers click here.
Something to keep in mind about a Haiku. Usually it is elemental in nature, but I don’t stick to that. There are two things I do like to see and they are; 1) Haiku that can be broken into two sentences with the middle line of the three lines being the commonly used part and 2) Opposite meanings in the first and last sentences.
Before you start!
I have links that will help you out. Remember for Haiku in English the total syllables are 5 for the first line, 7 for the second, and 5 for the last. I don’t really hold people to that for this but if you want to do it in the 5/7/5 manner, the traditional way, then try that. One link I have for you is . . . howmanysyllables.com. Simply type in the word and find out how many syllables it has. Also for synonyms and antonyms go to thesaurus.com, I find it useful for finding a word to fit the meaning when syllables are not working out right.
This weeks two words to use in some form, meaning you can use another word that means the same thing are:
Haunt & Release
My Example
Memories haunt me,
In times of least expecting,
My burdens released.
.
DEADLINE: Noon on Sunday New York Time.
(I hate doing deadlines, but it takes quite a while to complete the rewind.)
There are now things called “A RONOVAN’S CHOICE!” which simply means a Haiku that either touched me or was a stand out Haiku in structure and meaning.
Much respect
Ronovan

So on top of exercising my brain to come up with a worthy haiku, you now require a title – or I am subject to self entitlement (haha) by Ronovan the Great? Lol. That was so bad. Giddy that I got this done so early on a Monday – feeling a bit pun-ny. 🙂

I am afraid to go look now after all of that. o,O I like naming the Haiku when people don’t. I think you would call of yours “My Life”. 🙂
