Haiku examples

Remember how to make a haiku: 3 lines, with 5 syllables the first, 7 the second and 5 the last. It can´t be easier! Some reference to nature is typical in these poems.

The birds are flying
Above sea and white mountains
I want to be free 

Students like rainbows
generously cross our path
dissolving in warmth

Falling to the ground,

        I watch a leaf settle down

In a bed of brown.

 Snow falling slowly
Blanketing the trees and road
Silence and beauty.


alone, on the web,
drops of sensitivity
embrace an eyelash
