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!)
Hey Haiku-ers! Did you read my announcement?
This week’s theme is: Resolve
Resolve for better
Happy as bird with french fry
Let this new year ringHit the gym? Cliche!
Can’t make me. Ok… Maybe.
Sloth overrated
Bring on the sunshine!
Happiness; a beam away
Pointless moping? Pass!Raise your glasses high
To you all I wish the best
Happy New Year, Friends!
Folks, a quick note about comments: A few of you don’t have Name/URL enabled on your blogs, and I CAN’T comment in that case. 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: Brilliance (3 syllables)
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 (if you’re not listed and should be, please [politely] let me know!)
To participate in this week’s event, please use the following code in your post on your own blog (if you don’t have a blog, post your Haiku as a comment):
Jenn…
You are the Queen!!
Thanks for hosting…G
Happy as bird with french fry … Love it!!!
Happy New Year, Jenn!!
A Happy New Year to you, Jenn!
Look forward to the changes.
happy new year & prosperity to you on 2012 =)
But I don’t wanna leave a comment.
Haha!
As for the changes, ok, I was getting lazy and just linking to the blog itself. I did the rest of it though! I’ll link better.
MMT tells me that “Brilliance” is 2 syllables in the states, so we’ll make it either/or for next week!
I love “happy as bird with french fry!”
I’m going to try to make a weekly effort over here… no telling if I actually will get it done. Thanks for hosting, Jenn!
And a Happy New Year to you.
I am reluctantly with you on the gym – it does, however, help me get more reading done! :D
I’m back!!
I think I did the link right.
Ria
Happy new year, Jenn.
Here’s hoping we all resolve
to follow your rules.
You rebel chick, you!
No rules can hold the concern
That is Madeleine!
LOL! Love it! And thanks for posting your limerick in this week’s Limerick-Off challenge!
Well done haiku.
Happy New Year as well….I think I’ve been posting weekly for a month now?? Hope I don’t make any more mistakes!
Got it – thanks! :)
I have tried to write in this weeks Sensational Haiku Wednesday a haiku in the classical way with 5-7-5 syllables. I hope I succeeded.
Thank you for the new Sensational Haiku Wednesday.
I still can’t leave you a comment on your blog – I wish I could!
Thank you for trying to do 5-7-5, Chèvrefeuille! I wonder if the language barrier is an issue – you write English well, but the syllables may not be exactly what you think they are?
I appreciate that you tried, though, especially as English is not your first language, and I enjoyed your haiku.
