Sensational Haiku Wednesday
Welcome to “Sensational Haiku Wednesday!”
Click here for info and background on this weekly event!
The basics:
Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)
This week’s theme is: Transition
Reality change
Brakes hit hard, unsure of route
Regroup and move onMove to a new beat
Open mind to the future
Good things are to comeStark reality
Dreams cloud the issues at hand
Blue eyes in the darkFolks, a quick note about comments: I do visit everyone, but a few of you don’t have Name/URL enabled on your blogs, and I CAN’T comment in that case (and prefer not to have to email). Take a moment to enable that, will you? There are other ways to combat spam and still allow people with their own domains to leave their homage to your greatness ;)
Next week’s theme: Disclosure
Note: Nothing makes me happier than to see new people getting “hooked on haiku”! Keep it going to make it to the Hooked on Haiku List

Fantastic set of Haikus, Jenn..
Someone is Special

Transition isn’t easy it seems Great take on theme :O)
Those are wonderful, Jenn. I’m definately moving to a new beat and I’m going to put it like that, a perfect descrption, thank you. I really like the gentle energy in the third one.

Those who are unsure are on the Transition Road for sure!
I like the middle lines:
Brakes hit hard, unsure of route
Open mind to the future
Dreams cloud the issues at hand
OTOH, blue eyes are gray in the dark..

JzB – not when they’re eyes in my dream, my friend! ;)
Uggh, you seem to be picking these blog topics like pouring salt on me!
I’m feeling this right now as I contemplate going back to school :-O
Nicely done…. Yes, it’s been a little nuts, but we’ll pull through and will be all the better for it! Hope you’re feeling better :)
Wow Haiku that hit home! Sorry I am so late I posted early this more but forgot to come here. Hope you’re feeling better!
Amazing how your themes so often hit the spot for my current situations. Love to read your mind opening haikus. Have a wonderful week :)
transitions give us the chance to re-think our steps and our options. maybe they’re signs for us to change course. i love all your haiku pieces for this week’s theme, jenn.
i enjoyed reading the entries this week. they are all uplifting and positive.
Loved the third haiku a lot :)) .. like the sound of “stark reality” …
Some folks transition
From career to career.
Others multitask.
I really like that last one!
Frankly, I’d love to
think about “transition,” but
I think I’m snowed in.
