Welcome to this weeks Haiku prompt challenge.

(Not the Wordless with Pictures. That one is out at 12:00 Noon New York Time.)

If you want to refresh yourselves on a bit of Haiku in English, although you do not have to stick to that particular style of Haiku, it’s just my particular style to use, click here.

For Tips and Guidelines refreshers click here.

This weeks two words to use in some form, meaning you can use another word that means the same thing are:

Before you start!

I have a link 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. This the Haiku I use. 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. The 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.

The prompts!

Fluffy & Rainbow

Yes, I know the words are a little different than normal. However I promised a friend’s daughter that I would let her choose the words this week. I made the mistake of saying fun and uplifting. So she decided to stick it to me with these. She picked Rage and Flammable last week. Yes she has a very odd sense of humor.

Here are two examples just to give you something to spark the thoughts if need be. This shows you there are possibilities!

#1

The rainbow fell down,

Through the sky not quite of blue,

Dark fluffy clouds cried.

#2

Fluffy roses trim,

The skirt blowing in the wind,

Revealed rainbow scars.

Be sure to put a link to your Haiku in the comments below so we can all go check them out.

I’ll comment and also choose the ones that knock me down for one reason or the other and link back to them in my Weekly Rewind telling people how great they were and why I picked them. Eventually these will turn into categories.

Much respect

Thank you to each person that participated. I greatly enjoyed seeing the results. Reading them makes me want to push myself a little more in my own Haiku.

Cyril of Cyril Busierre : Cyril wrote a poem about me. No not really, but a very interesting contrast this week. Just go read it.

Florence T of Rambling On : Captures what so many of us go through. How she got a picture of my hands I will never know.

Hugh of Hugh’s Views & News :

At last it happened,

In the hot flames of Hades,

Hell has froze over.

Hugh wrote a poem, did it correctly, and it is great!

Silver Threading : I have to say that this was a wake me up poem. The imagery was excellent. I had to restrain myself from writing one back.

Faith Unlocked : One word–Dragons!

Each week it seems like the Haiku keep getting better. It shows that keeping at it does make for better work. The imagery is just getting so great. Silver Threading has me wanting to write love letters now. (sigh)

Silver Threading : Another philosophical Haiku. I had to stop and think about this one. Very appropriate choices of words and imagery. Very nice.

Faith Unlocked : Enjoyed this one, especially here on Sunday. A very clear an concise message.

Some deep thinking this week. It was either that or the authors just really touched on subjects that hit home with me.

The prompt words were Chaos & Calm.

Thank you to each person that participated. I greatly enjoyed seeing the results. Reading them makes me want to push myself a little more in my own Haiku.

Cyril of Cyril Busierre : Cyril brought a poem that was universal in nature and actually I felt identified me in many ways. This one stopped me as I read it and reread it. Even now I have read it through several times putting this Rewind together. An excellent Haiku.

Hilary of The Joy of Writing : Hilary brought her vacation home and shared it with us in this Haiku. You instantly knew what she was talking about in the few short lines and you wanted to escape.

Florence T of Rambling On : Florence writes a Haiku this week that can bring many meanings from the superficial immediate thoughts to various philosophical thoughts that my have Freud examining you in your dreams.

Kate of Dazzling Whimsy : I appreciate that Kate includes this challenge in her busy life. If you don’t know what I mean you need to visit her site and see her photography and the stories with them. This weeks Haiku tells of her daughters athletic activities. Three girls, three athletes for three different squads, with three different schedules, I don’t really get where she ever has calm.

Eloise of Thoughts by Mello-Elo : This week has been a crazy one for Eloise and I appreciate her involvement. I enjoyed this one a great deal as he gave my imagination sparks for thoughts of the sea and ships and such. You will need to read it for yourself.

I believe the Haiku offered this week were amazingly strong. The imagery each one provided hit in with each Haiku. I appreciate everyone that participates.

REWIND #2

The prompt words for Challenge #2 were Turtle and Snail.

I think a lot of people went with the land loving Tortoise on this one instead of the smooth water gliding Turtle but that’s okay. The contrasts were two fold here in land and sea as well as the smooth and relatively fast pace of the Turtle compared to the must be moving Snail because they are never there when you look later on.

Click the site links to go to each Haiku.

Kate of DazzlingWhimsy gave a really deep thought Haiku this week. I really enjoyed it and . . . well just go look.

Cyril of Cyril Bussiere got the Turtle instead of Tortoise here but I am still wondering how long it stayed there for that Snail to get to where it did.

Honua of Embracing a Wounded Soul did a great job. I loved the image she used. I still laugh each time I see it. Yes, I am laughing now. Your screen is shaking, right?

The Laughable Cheese of Welcome to Writers Town . . . well . . . I laughed. There is a bit of dry wit there.

Eloise of Thoughts by Mello-Elo nailed it this week. I have to truly name her the Big WORDsmith this week. Luckily I remembered she had written one.

Florence T of Rambling On gave us two selections. The first was quite good, the second . . . quite tasty.

Marcy of Illustrated Poetry gets the scientists award this week. 🙂 I really should make up awards like that. Who would have thought of using T-rex?

Thank you to each person that participated. I greatly enjoyed seeing the results. Reading them makes me want to push myself a little more in my own Haiku.
