POETS UNITED, The Poetry Pantry is now open


I discovered Poets United, the place to be, when you have your own poetry blog. I am glad to have found this website and I have published there one of my first English Haiku:

a lonely flower
my companion

for one night

Dutch translation:

een eenzame bloem
mijn metgezel
voor een nacht

A new challenge. The Thursday Poets Rally, part of The Poetry Palace, invited me to join.

The Poetry Palace

Cranes fly
through the evening clouds
what a sight

A lonely flower
my companion
for one night

At sunrise
the sound of church bells -
my morning prayer


Come On! Travel to the The Poetry Palace and look for yourself. Maybe you will join us too?!

SENSATIONAL HAIKU WEDNESDAY

Join the fun!

This weeks prompt is "excel" (in dutch: overtreffen of uitmunten) I will give it a try, but I think it's going to be a tough one.

the sparrows
taking a sandbath in my backyard
an excellent idea

ghosts on their way

SENSATIONAL HAIKU WEDNESDAY (26/10)

Join the fun!

This week's prompt "scare"

My interpretation of this prompt uses "scary" in stead of scare:

a scary sight
the bare branches
in the moonlight

New Haiku

at dawn
cows in the mist -
the spring breeze

beads of bright dew
hanging from the bamboo leaves
what a richness
