Haiku - A Set of Five

rumble of thunder-
rolling from your lips
another lie

thunderclouds-
empty words
speaking promise

flying home-
my luggage
stays on vacation

skipping rocks
across the pond-
frowning fishermen

strawberries
one day to perfection-
patient crows

I have often wondered about Haiku, it sounds so painful, but with these five short verses I can relate.
Thank you Lori,
Reg.

Lori,

GAD these are awesome haiku! I love all of them, but had to chuckle at

"flying home-
my luggage
stays on vacation"

How true! How 'bout a role reversal? The luggage can fly home while I stay here! LOL

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :)

Just amazing...I get soooo confused with haiku's/

When I counting syllables I always get either one extra or ... me just plain stupid!!

Like on this one I get

thunderclouds- 4
empty words - 2
speaking promise -6

Am I stupid or am I STUPID??

Love Tinka

You've accomplished your Haiku mission once again, Lori; like them all, especially the first one which is quite powerful.

These are good Lori, I done my best to choose a favorite, but it didn't happen.
I like to read your ku's slowly, so I can digest them fully.
Great work!

This one is very open to interpretation and the reader can and does manage to draw several conclusions from it. Is your love ending because of the lying, are you taking your frustration out on the fishermen and are the patient crows a sign that there is still hope?
Hmmmnnnn interesting.

I always enjoy reading your haiku, Lori. Each one of these made me smile for different reasons, but I have to say that (because I have such a penchant for strawberries), I enjoyed the last the most.
