Haiku Magic

Haiku is magic that captures fleeting moments with only a few words. According to the old school, a haiku should consist of a 5-7-5 syllable rhythm and include a word that suggests a season. I'd say ditch that! As long as the piece is written in three tight lines that invokes an image, it is haiku.

Temporary shelter from the rain
Under the canopy of an old hotel
Time stops while she smokes

Imagery snipped and trimmed
Inscribing the moment in my mind
The wonder of haiku magic

You will be passionately making love

snow

Will snow please
gently
obliterate the filth
that litters
my past?
