This is an awesome idea! :heart: but I can only write haiku in german…our syllables are different, I never understood how it works in english :smile:

@Giuvito is awesome with limmericks, could a limmerick count too?

Also, well… a limerick’s not really a haiku… but what the hell! Sure, why not!!!
Let’s make it a REAL poety slam!
Let me see if I can change the title of the topic…

Deande is love;
She’s way better than Scarlett;
Deande is life.

Special mention goes out to my inspiration, Herbert the hermit.

Heat up, and cool down
Take punishment, give it back
In your way? Bye, Bye.

It’s five syllables, then seven, then five again:

Rocket bird up high.
One, two, three shots to his beak.
Chicken for dinner.

I used to write haikus all the time, but it’s been awhile so I’m a little rusty.

Illumination
Cannot hide in the shadows,
Brought down by the sun.

Six eyes in the dark
Scarlet hell boiling within
Hat hunting the void

Is that right? As said, we germans divide our words in a slightly different way, so english syllables are not my strength.

Here a german Haiku for Orendi :heart:

Sechs Augen warten
Schwarze Säule strebt empor
Leere weicht Chaos.

approximate translation

“six eyes are waiting
black pillar rises high
void retreats from chaos”

Hehe, I still have not figured out the fine grammatically laws I need to divide longer english words into correct syllables… I remember dark that our engilsh teacher tried to get it in our heads, but with certain things I still struggle. Its mostly when endings count as single syllable or not - like “-ly” or"-ed".

But I guess I just think and worry to much about it - “is that right? It looks strange, I need to find out, don´t want to make a mistake - uwahhhh!!!” :smile:

It’s right, and very good. Makes me want to take some of mine down…

Wow thanks alot! :heart: but please don´t delete any of yours, those are awesome!!!

@Benedict_87 what you´ve done here!!! Now I´ll write Haikus all night…
