Premium Member City Haikus
This garden city
Concrete skyscrapers loom;
Greenery punctuate


Tree-lined avenues
Bourgainvillea clusters;
Traffic jam companions


Waltzing slowly
Overhead bridge;
Ant-people below


Old neighbourhood
Heartland community;
Ageing populace


Feeble old lady
Speeds on wheels;
Electric commotion


Playground
For small kids and big;
Noisy charades


Fitness park
For young and old;
Fighting spirit


City side walk cafe
Crowded after hours;
Beery happy hours


Noticeable absence
Dry spell ending;
Sudden torrential rain


Umbrellas raised,
Parasols ...

Alliterative Haikus'
Rising Rituals 

ravishing rawness
ravenous raunchy relief
riveting repeats


Special Someone

sultry seductions
sinful sensations surface
seeking saucy stars

Taming Taboo

teasing temptations
tremendous titillations
tempting the tyrant

Premium Member Seasons of Trees - Split Haikus
trees with sprouting limbs
bathed by spring's April showers
don
their lacy green robes

trees with dense full limbs
swayed by warm summer breezes
spread
their green velvet capes

trees with brilliant limbs
whirled by the cool autumn winds
shed
their burnished gold gowns

trees with cold bare limbs
frozen by winter blizzards
drape
their white fluffy scarves

Premium Member Halloween Haikus
In the shifting air
the sweet scent of candy corn
candle wax burning

All doors are open
an ancient mystery lives
I bask in its glow...

November Intrigue--Five Haikus

Moss breathes dampness, near
shifting blankets of old leaves.
Beds of lichen thrive.

Both pure and pungent,
the air is soul-enhancing,
gifting faint wood smoke.

On the forest floor,
Princess Pine grows sweetly
in pristine patches.

Old stone foundations
and a gurgling waterfall
capture heavy mist.

Dark reeds cross the marsh
to a long strand of...

Premium Member Matsuo Basho Haikus For Life
A morning spell 
freshly proposed  
comes quietly in 

yesterday's ambient air   
pushes out of the screen 
archaic puffs of stale   

what meanders out   
is the remnants of me  
before the crisis   

caught between  
hope...

3 Haikus
There were moments when / I thought I'd never again / see myself once more 
Trillions of eyes / unable to comprehend / what just two eyes can
Manipulate man / Steal away from his essence / then who will he be?...

Haikus on humour - I
Where is mystery
On how Moses makes his tea?
We know, Hebrews it.

It won’t surprise me
If a cartoonist’s found dead 
And clues are sketchy.

I catch it the least
That gossamer lovely beast,
Love still if I mist.

My blood report O
When showed it was type-A blood,
Oh, it was Typo. 

I...

1. Lunar Perspective #1

month long day and night
also sees earth wax and wane
no season penchant


2. Lunar Perspective #2

moon's sun mimics earth's
earth pirouettes on star stage
sun’s smile Cheshire Cat

moon turns once per month
lunar tides dictate strangeness
heat loss froze moon’s face
