Per lake's challenge in Teen explorer, here are 3 attempts at haikus.  I'm not sure how good they are ... these are the first ones I ever written.

When I need someone
You are no where to be found
You have broke me heart

My heart was falling
If you stopped running from me
You could have caught it

Warm summer breeze blows
Bright stars cover the night sky
I wish you were here

Dont believe what ur eyes r telling u they only show limitation. Look with ur understanding, find out what u already know & u will see the way to fly

Bravo Isgona!  Senryus (non-nature) and Haikus (nature oriented) are difficult, but so much fun, when you get going.  I loved this one in particular above ... wonderful imagery and perfect in your syllables, challenge well met!  

Best wishes,
/Kit

I loved them! Especially the last two. I don't know all the rules of haikus or anything but from what I can tell you did great.  

Live and let live.

All three of these are really good!  I liked the last one the most, I guess it just seemed to click with me for some reason.  Anyway, try some more if want to, and thanks for taking the challenge
