My First Haiku Poems
I'm used to writing free verse poems or prose but today I learned something.
It is my first time writing Haiku poems and I'm excited to share it. But before I do, let me explain what it is.* Features of Haiku Do enjoy a cup Your roses left dead Cute things but take care Leaves grow then they fall, Candle light flickers, I never thought that writing Haiku is fun. words don't need to rhyme but they make sense for me. This is short yet brings solid message. My friend @jacinta.sevilla suggested this to me and I decided to try it. Thank you for also suggesting good photos to use!
In my own words,

It contains three lines.
It has five moras (syllables) in the first line, seven in the second, and five in the last line.
It contains 17 syllables in total.
A Haiku poem does not rhyme.
Haiku poems frequently have a kigo, or seasonal reference.
Haiku poems are usually about nature or natural phenomena.
The poem has two juxtaposed subjects that are divided into two contrasting parts.
In English, this division between two parts can be shown by a colon or a dash.

when tea brings you peace and calm
you can't do with one.
the petals blown by the wind,
feelings yet alive.
your soft gentle finger could bleed
Oh lovely cactus!
Lovers go like the storm do
yet the strong ones remain.
some claims to see the future
will the light betray?
I really love reading books and writing, now that things are stressful, this brings us a good way to express creativity and try many new ways to do things. Stay strong in these hard times and keep working hard.
Awesome!
thank you ❤️❤️❤️
