Colleen’s Poetry – Challenge: Mist & Shape

Small Japanese poem GO GO GO!

Thanks to Colleen It’s that time again.  Small Japanese poem GO GO GO!

First up a 3/5/3

Lost in mist

unfamiliar shapes

boat shipwrecked

Now the traditional haiku

Cold mist rolling in

Reality obscured

vague shapes in the dark

or

Twisted eerie shapes

cold Mist enveloped spectres

heart racing in chest

Tanka with different spelling and meaning because why not?

Dirty ex girlfriend

I missed your shape when you left

and the way you moved

But you spent all my money

I think hookers are cheaper

I did a few serious ones before that…you know I cant be serious for long.

 

Okay, my first Cinquain now.  Sorry.

Donald

Orange tosspot

Bumbling, hating, grabbing

spewing filthy oral garbage

Twat

  1. Well done! I enjoyed a great laugh or two. Were you surprised about the senryu? You’ve been writing them a while. I think these are marvelous! Well done!!

  3. For blogging purposes most of this works. It’s when we start publishing and entering poetry contests that we need to know the differences. And, practice helps to hone your craft. 😀 ❤
