And Seaweed Nets
How about
Challenging starfish –
Volleyball?
——————–
Yes…And No
Animals?
No, they are cacti –
Prickly pair.
——————–
Into Thick Air
The suspense
As suspension fades
Into fog.

* The haiku I write are lines of 3-5-3 syllables instead of 5-7-5.

Haha, very good. Interesting article on haiku too, makes sense. 🙂
Thanks. Glad you stopped by to read.
Oh, I really like all of these!!! I had to laugh at the idea of even trying to win a volleyball game against something that has five arms to play with. And those cacti do look like animals. I think I like number three the best. Even the title is ingenious.
I used a play on words in the second one. Prickly pear are the real cacti and we have a lot of that in Texas. These are a prickly pair. 🙂
Three great haikus. Excellent as usual
Thank you!
Marvelous as always. 🙂 I think I found them Good, Better, Best today in my preferences, but enjoyed each one! The starfish, if you ask me, had better be challenged in their match by a team of octopi or the action will get too one-sided. 😉
Thanks! Starfish against octopi – 5 against 8. It still may be on-sided. 🙂 Or, another way is probably what you were “lining” up with – one side will be no-sided. 🙂
