Frog haiku


The frog is little
Hop pond to pond in the Spring
It's green with mucous

S.I.

Lightning Bug Haiku

High floating lanterns
Reflections on the surface
Florescent glowing

E.S.


Spring Haiku


Blooming bold and bright
The fragile green stems growing
Pink buds start new life

E.S.

From A.M.

Sparkling silver moon
On shining rippled water
Two moons move and gleam 



More moon haikus


Sparkling silver moon
On shining rippled water
Two moons move and gleam

A.M.

A light ring high up
Surrounding darkness blends in
The moon shines darkly
D.M.

Spring Haiku


Crystal and wet
Slippery fragile raindrop
Lays fresh water beads

A.E.

Slippery grass dew
The rain drop beads roll and wet
Crystal-fragile-clear
A.E.

Beads of sweet fresh dew
Slip down green blades of new grass
Roll gently to earth
J.M.

A bead of freshness
Slipping off slides of wet grass
Cool crisp 'till the warmth
M.M.

Drops of rain water
Slide down a blade of green grass
Gloop gloops to the ground

Panagiotis I


Beads drip from the grass
Wet and slippery and drenched
Raindrops hit the ground

E.E.M.


Silvery beads drop
Running down the great green slides
Dewy blades of grass
D.M.

Beads of clear water
Going down a water slide
Drenching the green grass

C.K.M.

The clear drops of rain
Quickly roll down the green grass
The grass is so damp.
A.F.









Moon Haiku

The moon rises slow.
Time slows down in the dark  night.
A lone owl cries, "hoot."
J.T.M.

Carolina moon
Sparkling in the  dark night sky
White dime reflection

M.T.

A light ring high up
Surrounding darkness blends in
The moon shines darkly
D.M.






One big silver moon
Sparkling in the dark night
Shining all alone.
K.E.M.












The moon is shining
Its reflection is silver
It is beautiful

The moon is pretty
Ot is pretty on the lake
It comes out at night

B.E.O.

The clouds fly high
Wispy winds blow together
Feathers of white fog
