Hello All!
I know I have not been around in a while. What can I say? Life happens, but even so, I have not given up on writing and working with the senior writing group. I thought you might enjoy my latest poem written for the Ink & Quill group. It is written in the Haiku format; five syllables are in the first and last line, and seven are in the middle line. Usually, the Haiku is only one stanza. They don’t rhyme, and they are often about nature.
The Ground Hog Haiku
By Marie Staight
The day is Cloudy
Up the Ground Hog pops his head.
No shadow, Spring comes!
The day is sunny
From the burrow, he pops.
A shadow, winter stays.
I hope you enjoyed this poem. Why don’t you try your own hand at writing a Haiku? I’m sure you will enjoy authoring one.
Marie
