HAIKUs

Haiku how?

Do I follow form
Or formulary? Is 5 then
Seven and 5 to
End the verse enough?
Or to start it up again?
Do I follow form?

Haiku wow

So short and yet still
So stubborn and insistent.
Do I follow form?

My haiku

Why five, not three, or
Four. Why seven, for me, a
Magic number, not
Nine or eleven or
An even ten an odd one
Not one per se, but
A shorter or a
Longer number like thirteen
Why five, not fourteen?

Why? Am I missing something?

Up yonder

Clouds came into view as they would. How could they not when I was viewing The sky? Clouds, they tend to live up in
The sky, whereas I only dream of being
High up amongst the clouds. I am here 
Down to earth. Not walking on clouds.
Walking on roadways or sidewalks, on
Concrete. This is a very concrete place
Wherein, open which I tread. Carefully
Looking up into a sky full of clouds as
Delicate, light and airy as frothy cream

Gather ye rosebuds

While ye may, may you live fully
Pay attention to details, to all big
And little things that make you
Happy and let you capture the
Flowers and smell roses or if ye
Like lilacs, in all their glorious
Pale purple, as fragrant as if they
Were a lusher deeper shade. Just
One more detail to hold in your
Heart. Gather ye rosebuds awhile.
