Twelve pieces of the Japanese poetry
A haiku is basically a japanese form of poetry of three lines with a fixed syllable pattern(usu. 5-7-5) and is a powerful description of something.Read them and send me your rating and review alongwith appropriate titles(for the untitled ones) to earn 10 GPs per haiku(one lucky person).Note-this is not a contest,its just a way to give away some gps & see if my haikus actually make any sense without a title! So here goes:
a)Droplets sparkle like
Diamonds on a jade splendour
On a new day's morn.


b)A dazzling sphere, that
Brightens up the azure sky--
Preserver of life.


c)Robed in black, the moon
Is her beauty, grace and crown
And stars, her jewels.


d)LIGHTENING
Lightening flashes--
A silver arrow released
From the bow of God.


e)Bathed in sunlight
Peers from its protective shell
And faces the world.


f)BLOSSOM
Surrounded by leaves
Of emerald hue is this
Fragile white blossom.


g)Vanishing drops split
Into a seven hued scarf
Which adorns the sky.


h)RAIN
Rain falls on roof-tops
Showering God's blessings upon
The still sleeping world.


i)The slender tree's boughs
Covered by creamy pink flowers--
Blissfully serene.


j)Conical and tall
Holding up their arms to the
Silver moonlit sky.


k)Flying to their nest
A flock of black against the
Painted horizon.


l)Fallen leaves cover
The ground with an exquisite
Golden-red blanket.
