Haiku on Writing Haiku

Published on June 10, 2007 By Jythier In Poetry

I love writing these
The people who read them say
It was worse than death.

Once upon a time
there was a haiku challenge
I think I just lost.

Haiku gland failing
Syllables are hard to count
I must stop writing.

Thanks Mason! Haiku is always fun for me, trying to get my thoughts to fit into the syllables with synonyms.

I enjoyed reading these.

BTW .. It wasn't worse than death.

I was psyched when I saw 'once upon a time' could fit in a line.

Glad you enjoyed them. I'd put some more up, but I don't want JU to become a haiku site with some bloggers on it.
