Haiku Friday: Water
It is hot here-- nearly 100 degrees the last few days. In Minnesota, we aren't so good at dealing with that, but those 10,000 lakes sure help!
Water, in nature, is a traditional theme of classical haiku, actually. We don't have to limit ourselves to water in nature, though. We can haiku about water to drink, the water coming out of the hose, the water running down a driveway as a guy washes his car. Be creative!
Here, I will go first:
At dusk, I hear frogs
Deep voices from shallow water
Calling out to God.
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!
