Haiku Quartet
An “Acrostic Fly Haiku,” as suggested by Acrostics Only:
Free-floating on air,
Light as a feather, it soars,
Yielding to a swat.
*****
A “Relief Haiku,” as suggested by Sensational Haiku Wednesday:
Writing on deadline—
no ideas, none, nada.
Then, at last, relief.
*****
Forking over rent—
More than many can handle
if they like food too.
*****
Crafting a poem
takes work, skill, art, cleverness.
Damn … I left out wit.

Love your poems, Haiku Wednesday is a tough enough deadline – can’t imagine a real one!
These are all four wonderful haiku. I really like the second one.
Nadda. But, looks like it did turn into something!
Incredibly clever haiku!
Excellent! Acrostic and Relief my favs
Thanks so much everyone for your lovely comments about my haiku!
You never leave out “wit”, my friend :) Great set! I know the relief of finally coming up with “something” – well crafted!
Thanks, Jenn!
