Haiku
The Cherry Blossom
Habit of the Western Wind
Surrendered Free

Sun released ice spring sips
A snowy owls feather swims silently away
Robins return looking for worms

Spring calling my name
Awaking me from long sleep
Make my winter dream
The Haiku rule of 5-7-5 syllables is not easy in English.
I don't know how easy it is in Japaneses.

It's challenging to write 'proper' Haiku in English that's for sure but that could be part of it's charm. You can get a little emotional, intellectual or spiritual work-out writing Haiku and there is always beauty in it's brevity like your beautiful Haiku above. Not sure what it's like writing Haiku in Japanese as i don't know the language unfortunately. Thank you for sharing

I quote myself "revised" because this is figured is the spirit of Haiku.
Sun melting ice spring sips
A White snowy owl feather floats away
Crows returning cawing for home
Haiku is like describing your day in 3 words and capturing the spirit all the same.

Ok, here is another.
Spring welcomes me in
I fell into its embrace
Ready to blossom

Nice, now try to fit all that into 5, 7, 5 syllable rule.

Sprinkled with gold dust
Drawn from source to revive us
We set Spirit free.
Never tried a haiku before - did I get it right, 5 - 7 - 5? It's not words right, its 'vowel sounds'?

Looks OK to me Realm ki, it's not just the word count that matters, syllables.
Syl-la-ble counts three
Got it for this makes sev-en?
One two three four more....
Ta da ta da da
Da da ta da da da ta
Ta da da da ta.
Have-ing neu-ral mind
Tak-ing all the help I can
Show me the path home
But please not your vowels.
