Haiku Efforts - 2

Wednesday, February 13, 2008


Averted eyes
don’t tell what
I feel for you

you reach out
three words of love
A moment too late


She scares to touch
glass walls around
Childhood snatched


Fragile envelope
too precious to be torn
Stays unopened


PS: they are just efforts, not technically haiku

Well, precisely, Haiku requires a seasonal word, a cutting word and a 5-7-5 syllable count progression in three lines.

Now, I've read some without seasonal words. Probably, this is a modern approach.

So, precisely, you need to work on the syllable count now -> 5-7-5

ABOUT THIS POST

Very very deep lines here served in utmost simplicity! Well done! As I wrote above, simply work on the syllable count and you shall be fine Chhaya! Good luck!
