Check out the COMMENTS for entries this week, and come back throughout the week to see more links to poems as they come in.
Drop by on Wednesday for the Décima Poetry Challenge. Sometimes the two challenges have similar themes you can unite over the week.
Click HERE. To learn about the new style I’ve created called Shi Rensa Haiku and how to write one, maybe even for the challenges.
An updated How to Write Haiku in English. that has just a little more detail and for knowledge and perhaps craft. And how to do a Pingback.
Useful Links.
Thesaurus: HOME, Weep
Thesaurus.com
Merriam-Webster Dictionary
The Guidelines:
- Take the two words and write a Haiku. I use Haiku in English (the link shows you how) as my style, which is 5 syllables for the first line, 7 for the second, and 5 for the third, but you can use what you like.
- The link above has links on how to write Haibun and Tanka. You can also do the 3/5/3 form if you like instead of the 5/7/5 that I usually use. Write, share, and have fun. For syllable help,
- For syllables for each word, and different definitions, you use the definition that works for you Haiku. You can also use SYNONYMS. Go to Thesaurus.com for synonym help.
- Copy the link of your finished haiku URL and paste in a comment below so we can all go and visit your Haiku.
- You can do a pingback. What’s a pingback? Place the URL from the address bar up top from this post as a link within your post. Your inclusion of the link encourages others to try the challenge, be creative, and join a community to find friends and more followers (hopefully). I honestly gain nothing with more people visiting the post. I don’t have ads running that generates revenue by your visit or by clicks on whatever WordPress has put up.
- Click HERE for a detailed post on PINGBACKS.
- If you like, copy the image in this post and place it within their post, just to show the Haiku is part of this challenge.
- I am not saying you need or even should, but if you would like to do so then go ahead.

Kamloops Nights: 3-Endless
We will weep for them,
children who could not go home,
who wait to be called.

Kamloops Nights: 3-Endless-a Shi Rensa quartet
We will weep for them,
children who could not go home,
who wait to be called.
Who wait to be called,
shorn, tongueless, with joyless eyes,
love locked in the earth.
Love locked in the earth,
forlorn spirits left to cry
In the tear-stained soil.
In the tear-stained soil,
they await resurrection
and their journey home.

Man’s inhumanity never ceases to dismay me. Beautifully written. A sad and shocking discovery… Sadly no country is free from this evilness not one!
