Chain, chain, chain, chain of haiku fools

CDSinex · Nov 13, 2011

But we all forget
the sound of summer’s crickets,
come the rains of fall.

Ganesha · Nov 13, 2011

without time or space
I can't set my clock right now
within time and space

oops, wrong time and space...

Ganesha · Nov 13, 2011

come the rains of fall
the updraft of winter snow
banked fires beckon

zanzjan · Nov 13, 2011

Banked fires beckon;
This novel took my lifetime,
Promised only ash.

StephenD · Nov 13, 2011

promised only ash
that which we have smoked, have used.
left- cigarette butts.

B.D. Eyeslie · Nov 14, 2011

Left cigarette butts
for a new life of freash air.
Now I choke on words.

L.J. · Nov 14, 2011

now I choke on words
spotlight blinds my eyes from
the opponent's glee

Blarg · Nov 14, 2011

The opponent's glee --
opening changes to trap --
astonished regret.

Teena · Nov 18, 2011

astonished regret
I knew the right words to say
but chose not to speak

CDSinex · Nov 19, 2011

But, chose not to speak.
Naked oaks, branches skyward
as if to ask why.

kdnxdr · Nov 19, 2011

as if to ask why
our eyes spoke what words could not
knowing the answer

StephenD · Nov 20, 2011

knowing the answer
we rationally pursue
yes, we must practice

zanzjan · Nov 20, 2011

Yes, we must practice
All the chords and notes of life
Against Time's drumbeat.

Blarg · Nov 20, 2011

Against time's drumbeat,
melody may hesitate --
doubt accumulate.

Ganesha · Nov 21, 2011

doubt accumulate
yet wait, I do hesitate
making me too late

StephenD · Nov 21, 2011

making me now late
setting my watch and trusting
another person's time

CDSinex · Nov 22, 2011

Another person's time
might be measured by a clock—
Here? Only seasons.

Ganesha · Nov 23, 2011

Here? Only seasons
put thyme into the stuffing
thanks giving win Fall

ddgryphon · Nov 24, 2011

thanks giving win Fall
gratitude will flow from me
out to those i love

kdnxdr · Nov 24, 2011

out to those i love:
this song i'm dedicating
you know who you are

Blarg · Nov 25, 2011

You know who you are
when you say what you don't mean --
why want it believed?

Teena · Nov 25, 2011

why want it believed?
seeing is believing, yet
you turn a blind eye

zanzjan · Nov 26, 2011

You turn a blind eye,
And I keep my own counsel.
Time will not touch us.

Teena · Nov 26, 2011

Time will not touch us
nor death disturb our union
for we share one soul

kdnxdr · Nov 26, 2011

for, we share one soul,
hope to find eternal bliss,
believing in love
