Sensational Haiku Wednesday

Welcome to “Sensational Haiku Wednesday!”

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!)

Here are the rules:

      Structure: While Haiku may be written by some in other styles, for THIS meme only 5-7-5 is acceptable. At least one of your haiku must be in this format.
      Theme/Prompt: We have a new prompt each week, and your haiku needs to be related to it, if not include the actual word in it. Feel free to leave a word suggestion in a comment!
      Linking: When you post your link, link to the blog post with your haiku, not to the main page of your blog.
      Reciprocate: If you participate and post your link on my website, you must have a link back here on your post. It’s only fair.

    Folks not complying with the above risk having their links removed. Don’t make me be all “Grrrr” and stuff, it makes me grumpy! Thanks for your cooperation!

This week’s theme is: Reaction

    Eco friendly scrub;
    Vinegar, baking soda
    Bubble hissing fun!

A group of women
Gripping sounds, voices magic
That’s what I’m sayin’!!

    Dark clouds menacing
    Sharp winds howl as winter bites
    White puffs of ice fall

Facebook Copyright
“Legal revocation?” NOT.
Pointless nonsense!

*** Please read the 4 simple guidelines above before you post your link.

₪ Next week’s theme: Avarice

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 ;)


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):

You can also choose to use only a text link, or either of these additional images I made for your use! Use This one (dark), or This one (light)!

You can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed. Both comments and pings are currently closed.

  1. Nice selection of haiku. I think the Linky has gone wrong. I’m seeing last weeks on this post. Here’s mine for this week:

    I love your haiku this week Jenn! The storm one is my favorite of the bunch, although IRL my kids and I love watching vinegar and baking soda react with one another.
