About This Poem

Four in haiku

butterflies flying 
I see them, beautiful 
want to go with them 


rainbow colored skies 
smell of lavender in air
banana pudding on tongue


pearls of gold sunlight 
sapphire blue dripping 
golden leaves falling


trees are standing tall 
birds singing sweet music 
songs of memory filled past

    Debbie, I'm no authority on Haikus, I just struggle and pound my knuckles trying to determine if my poem is qualified as a haiku. I think this entry can be called a haiku..... and a damn good one at that!! Nice Job.... Love Ya, Jake

    Glad to see your beautiful haiku this morning. I loved doing mine for that contest. Now I am running out of ideas for any of the other contests! These have incredible imagery. And the banana on tongue is such a unique line!

    Enjoyed reading your descriptive work..I am glad that I chose this one to read today..Thanks for stopping by..Yes, I watch the Red Cardinals out my kitchen window for if I open the door they fly away..Someday I am going out there and just sit and see if they come and eat and drink with me out there..Thanks for stopping by..When I go out on the porch and sit, I see birds from a slight distance..They come with me there unafraid..Your review was uplifting..Sara

    Deb when I write for a contest, what I submit is colored by what I THINK the judge likes, how they themselves see the form, write the form..not all of what label haiku for a contest would I consider haiku [the breast one I would not consider haiku..it is haiku LIKE]

    Duncan Avatar Debbie Duncan Date: 11/12/2012 12:32:00 PM Block poet from commenting on your poetry

    I wondered about that " breast" one being a real haiku,,,, yes do show me/ explain ;} thanks Debbie !
