FoxLocke Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 This is a Haiku poem. There is nothing angsty or tragic going on. Just a little poem I made up. I was reading a book about Japanese Haiku's, and I decided to write one myself. ________________________________________ The Raccoon By Foxlocke The thunder crashed. My house shook. The rain never ceased, so I chose to read a book. So loud was the racket that I never divined the masked little bandit, the raccoon, fleetly hijacking everything that was mine.

FoxLocke Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 Thanks Sum guy and Ailec! Haiku encourages brevity and humor. Whenever I write a poem I am encouraged to create depth using tons of alliteration. However, with Haiku, I get to use my imagination and sense of humor. A haiku gives a scant view into a situation and it makes the reader think about what just happened. I love Haikus they are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
