(Let’s all sing along, now.)

Haiku…Haiku there’s lots of work to do.

The Challenge is done, my brains a mess

Natures bounty’s we caressed

Haiku…Haiku, Haiku….

🌸

Haiku…Haiku, there’s lots of work to do.

Seventeen syllables, no more, no less

Vocal judges will seek the best.

Haiku…Haiku Haiku…

🌸

Haiku…Haiku, there’s lots of work to do.

Cutting words carved poetry crests

Can’t sleep, can’t think, we need our rest.

Haiku… haiku, haiku…

🌸

Haiku…haiku, there’s lots of work to do.

Round three, you say, I pray you jest.

Creators I beg you, please resist.

Haiku… haiku, haiku…

😱

Haiku…Haiku, it’s time to close up shoppe.

A lonely, longing, woman waits,

her dystopian world you must create.

Dystop… dystop, dystop, dystop.

“Ugggg. Nevermind. That sounded dark and evil.

Torture is it? Times change quick here.

It’s off to work with ya, before you lose your other eye.”

    Love it! Lol, I can relate to the stress, as I would need to write/find a lot of poetry in my senior year of high school for my creative writing class. My sixth-grade class is where I was introduced to haikus, though and I think I wrote the winning poem for that challenge (for a Hershey bar, haha).
