Haikus...all the way...

This is a collection of 9 haiku’s I wrote at Saarang 05. Haiku is a japanese verse form having 5-7-5 syllable scheme. They should necessarily have a reference to a season (atleast indirectly). Even pointers to a season are allowed.(eg Mosquitoes refer to summer,snow to winter etc). Metaphors and simlies are to be avoided. As this is my first attempt at Haiku all my verses do not necessarily stick to the 5-7-5 scheme. But I have tried to bring in the seasons concept in most. We were given a few words and asked to write haiku’s having a connection ( however vague)with the word.

1.Woman

Half of god,
Lost in the sleaze
Where is she?

2. Silence

Post the cacaphony
In the autumn of life
Yearning for silence.

3. Kitten

Damn the lineage
Small and weak it may be
Cat is still tiger family

4. Grass

Apostles of peace
Do not trample me
Abode of insects

5. Blue

How to describe
Rainbow in the sky
To the colourblind


6. Physics

Saying heating expands
So summer days are longer
Is no physics


7. Death

On an invisible horse
Fast as a cyclonic wind
Death chased me

8. Train

Life does not stop
Unlike a speeding train
For tracks under water

9. Phone

When in heat
Cuckoo needs no phone
To pick its mate
