Summer's End--Haiku
This wild lake whipping
Waves into a foamy froth--
Fall descends on Cleveland.
October on Lake Erie--Haiku
Wind roils the wild lake
Gales blow from the west to east--
My soul is swept clean.
[Haiku often have three lines with syllable counts of 5-7-5 approximately. They usually present vivid sense images and a seasonal word or phrase. Often the poem is cut into 2 parts, a kind of juxtaposition. Sometimes at the end there is a sudden insight or epiphany. Haiku are really fun to write.]
