5-7-7-5. Bonus points if they come to you while driving.

I.
Alone on the road,
a storm of wild lettuce seeds.
Twenty-nine bikers roll by;
one seed drifting down.

II.
There’s a cloud hanging
over the mountain— No, wait!
There’s a cloud being born on
the mountain right now.

C’mon, anybody? 5-7-7-5. Just give it a shot, next time you see something awesome, describe it like that. It’s not as hard as real haiku...

Articulated,
Punctured, severed, and still warm,
I’m kneeling by the roadside
With an eyeless hawk.

Awesome! I guess the fast motion while driving gives freedom to the mind, and so to the imagination...

It turns out it wasn’t a hawk, it was a juvenile barred owl. Haven’t made up my mind whether I need to revise in order to fit reality or not.

I miss my 40-mile commute too sometimes.

Atlanta is known for that, isn’t it?

The rain has melted
The snow, and now on the ridge
The clouds have frozen themselves
Along the branches.

No words on my mind
The muse no longer taps me
I miss the fire of writing
Hope you come back please

English, words, firestorm
I'm far from the motherland
But I miss your worplay girl
May you come back soon

💫And I spaced out on responding here ages ago... thanks for playing! Your prize, should you choose to accept, is the right to re-name the 5-7-7-5 form... ‘haikindrome’ isn’t doing it for me. (Unless, of course, it already existed before I thought of it, in which case I would love to know.)
