Couplet #2

Oh how I love the snap,
Of a fresh sheet of bubblewrap.

Haiku #5

Green contrasts with white
Snow on an evergreen bush-
A sky full of clouds.

Haiku #4

A flash of bright blue,
A feather lying in grass-
A sweet bluebird's song.

Haiku #3

Delicate crystal,
Can be broken with one finger,
Yet fell from the sky.

Mystery poem

Today is special,
The day of my favorite poem-
Can you guess what kind?

Virelay #2

I meet a hundred people every day,
And yet I don't know one,
I smile at them while they pay
In a flash they're done.

I'm surrounded by people having fun,
But I don't know one name.
So How can you honestly meet anyone
When tomorrow will be the same.

A few who walk in make me happy they came,
Some are horribly rude,
No matter what happens I must always aim,
To keep a positive attitude.

Rubiyat #2

I have a friend outside my window,
A small and common little fellow,
His singing sometimes wakes me up,
But I still love my little sparrow.

Rubiyat #3

Scales as bright as a gem,

Gracefully soaring, it flattens them,

A beautiful ribbon cuts through the air

A sight that could scare many men.

Dodoitsu #1

A zombie apocalypse

The undead are hunting you

Black widows are abundant,

Better check your shoe.

Haiku #2

Stormclouds Overhead

The wind roars and thunder booms-

 The leaves are changeing.

Couplet #1

I am not the best poet,

Believe me, I know it.

Lantern #1

Time

Moves fast

Once it's gone

It won't come back

Lost

Senryu #1

When happiness comes

You are swept away by it-

Intoxicateing

Haiku #1

Summer is over

Fallen leaves carpet the ground-

It is getting cold

Etheree #1

Bird

A breeze

Soft singing

Leaves rustling

The clearing is peaceful

I crack open a bird-book

I relax and eat some berries

And remind myself to come back someday

Virelay #1

I am young so I still dream,

About what lies ahead,

My life before me seems to gleam,

Though not without some dread.

And while I'm lying in my bed,

My mind starts to spin,

I think of things that I have said,

and what will soon begin

I think of things that'll come again,

And that which cannot be,

Of my dearest dreams that I hold in,

And choices that haunt me.

Rubiyat #1

A clear stream gently flows,

I pause and wonder where it goes,

The day is hot and I 've traveled far,

My one wish is to cool my aching toes.

Welcome.

I have recently started writing poetry, in particular Haikus.  I decided to create a blog to post the best ones I have created, in case anyone is interested.. As for where I got the poetry formats, I used this site to figure out which type I would enjoy writing. Hope you enjoy!
