Serial Haiku

[Angharad]

It might be fun and interesting to do a variation on Rishi's "Une Lingne Donne" discussion in which three participants will each write a full haiku (rather than a single line) that will end up telling a cohesive haiku "story."

The first person will write a haiku. The second person will hit "reply" to that haiku, copy and paste it in the reply box, then add his or her own haiku. The third person will hit "reply" to the second  offering, copy and paste the first two haiku, then add the third and final haiku.

Three haiku for each completed "story" sounds good to me because it gives the opportunity for a beginning, middle, and end.

I'll begin...

field of wildflowers

a windmill, stark in the sun

foreboding feelings

 

Okay, now somebody write a haiku that will be the middle of the three-part haiku story...

field of wildflowers

a windmill, stark in the sun

foreboding feelings

 

blades creak as they turn

butterflies shift her far trance

worldly cares flutter

she watches a crow

dark wings slice through clear blue sky

something is coming...

leaves crunch underfoot

tall spires lift above treetops

a stone arch beckons

she accepts the fact

that men are indeed from Mars

and she's too fragile

spring's caterpillars

inching along furry brown

supple branches bend...

a gathering of sparrows

eye the slow progress
