Intense waves pounding
Shoreline buried by water
Back to sea it goes

For a good song to get you in the mood for nice long days listen here:
-
Haiku – Rain, Coffee, and Sunday Morning
Cold liquid morning
Warmth in my favorite mug
Time for church again
-
Haiku – Mystical
A land of dragons
One king rides for destiny
His fate sealed in blood
+
I’ve gotten absolutely hooked on this DragonForce MP3 Album that I just downloaded.
This song especially inspired this Haiku. It has to be one of the greatest Power Ballads I have ever heard.

Haiku – Mother Nature Shape Shifter
Cool night approaching
Sunshine shedding daylight skin
Slips into darkness
-
Acrostic Haiku – Son
Sunshine and joy
One awesome, fabulous love
Nothing can compare
+
I’ve never tried my hand at Acrostic Poetry before, but this one kind of came to me earlier in the day. I am also not sure Haiku Poetry is usually used for Acrostic.
Anyway, anyone who does Acrostic Poetry, can you tell me what you think of this one or if you don’t, thoughts and what not about it are always appreciated?

Haiku – The “Musty, Dusty, Rusty” Run
Running shoes laced up
Legs, back, arms, and feet say ouch
What are you doing?????
+
I actually got back out there tonight. It felt (and I can’t say this enough) so good. I only did about 3 or 4 minutes of running out of 30 minutes, but at least I did something. I am happy about that.
Anybody else trying to get back into exercising? Feel free to vent below.

Haiku – Spring Sun
Winter is passing
Giving way to warmer days
Free of snow and ice
+
Yeah or nay, are you glad warmer days are here?
I sure am.

Haiku – Color Palette
Spring time in full bloom
Pink, green, yellow, white, and blue
Vivid visuals
+
Anybody taking advantage of Mulching season – that’s what it really is right now. I think I have put down about twenty or so bags so far, planted a few new things, and still have loads more to do. I am not an outdoor guy though. Not a big fan of yard work, but if it looks nice, kind of have to do it.
So, do you like or hate yard work?
+
As a sidebar: I’ve kind of had this song in my head for two days. Maybe you will as well.

Haiku – White Ball
Aiming for the green
Piercing the competition
Like a sharp needle
+
Jordan Spieth just won The Masters by destroying everyone around him. I honestly don’t watch a lot of golf – never played the game myself – but sometimes I like to watch it. I got hooked this weekend, and I had to Haiku about it today. Did anyone reading this watch The Masters this weekend? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Haiku – Seasonal Humans
Youth is the springtime
Summer and fall we live – grow
Winter when we’re old
+
I was reading this bit of poetry this morning on Black and Write and it inspired me to write this Haiku. Thanks Dom for the inspiration.
