Have you ever tried your hand at a haiku? I’m no expert but in simple terms a haiku is 3 lines long. The 1st and 3rd are composed of 5 syllables, and the second has 7. It’s quite usual to have a ‘natural’ reference, e.g. sun, seasons, mountains. It doesn’t rhyme, and often comes across a bit cryptic. All a bit Zen!
That’s it really. I’ll post the one I’ve just written. I’ve weaved in a slight cd reference. I’m not claiming it’s any good, but what the …
If anyone wants to add their own, that’d be wonderful.

anya with a little ‘a’,
Whatever, whichever you want. Literary criticism is above my pay rate
Don’t overthink it, remember it’s all a bit zen and all a bit of fun.

Too true,Marti. I blame it on the government. I was once asked what are the principles of teaching music . One of them is to create an avenue for enjoyment through accomplishment, A government advisor said to me – : there is no priority that includes enjoyment. I nearly threw my teddy at him. Good God, what other incentive matters more ???
We analyse and forget to enjoy. Well reminded, Marti.

Marti- am I right in assuming haikus have no capitals at start of line?
If not- there is an added sense of connection – but to where and what?
A good plot maybe?Anya
- September 22, 2021 at 8:28 am #546640Anonymous
Lol, no idea about what’s ‘right’. But yes, no reason to capitalize if the lines flow. As for plots, the haikus I like best are the ones that make you go “eh?”.
