71
Circles on the pond
Stir ripples of memory
Rainbows in water

72
The moon's left at dawn
The rooster calls the sun up
A brand new day sings

73
Purpose without art -
Petals open one by one
Art found in purpose

74
The days never end
So we can make our ends meet
Seasonal cycle

75
Lords of Illusion
failed to illude a young mind -
"The King is unclothed!"

76
"Till death us do part"-
pledge lasts for generations
Does it really work?

77
The universe hummed
As rivers surged, mountains shook -
A grand symphony

78
Not in this instance -
Harder you work, better results.
It needs natural gifts

79
Pie-crust promises-
Like "draw water with baskets"
We buy what we see.

80
Butterfly kisses
Like a spring shower on flowers
Bees become jealous

好,动感出来了。 曾把 swim 用在别处,这里就没想到了。


73

Arts flourish in life 确实是这样。而这首主要是在玩儿 wordplay - purpose, art 也没在意是否 make sense, 写出来后,读读,还有点儿意思。

74

Seasonal cycle

<> Only dream cycles

想,一天到晚忙忙碌碌,日复一日,年复一年,不就是为了
make your ends meet 吗?


75

Yes, the "King" is an old story, but "Lords of Illusion" is not - combine these two together.

'illude', did I coin it? True, I wanted to find a verb to the noun 'Illusion", so I wrote it down first and then went to the internet to check to see if it is legitimate. Ha, here is the definition :
v. t.
To play upon by artifice; to deceive; to mock; to excite and disappoint the hopes of.

It is also in your favorit dictionary.com

yeah, eight syllables...
多义: 我不管其他人怎么想;我不管结果如何;其他我一概不在乎,只在意 enlightenment 。。。?

I have to be carefull with syllables.

Looking forward to your duet!

谢谢 Kokho 坦诚交流,热情指导。在不断学习中。

Please note that, those are not comments

they are the replacement - mostly for the last phrase Smile

i think i missed your 多义, please advise.

i know it is 5-7-5, i was talking about my 5-8-5. i must admit sometimes, i don't care too much about syllables.

Wait a minute, your Haiku says it well:

don't you dare complain...
i didn't care for the rest
one enlightenment !

Laughing

another note:

i didn't care for the rest (6, some phonologists would argue; unless it is 'i did not care for the rest'.) Laughing

I know Haiku to you is like 朗诵诗 to Kokho, not your taste...

So I feel honored to see your 期待, 鼓励! (希望这里没多义。)

其它那两句嘛 也打油一个

哈,朝湿柴,细炊烟,夜来孤影衣单,何来一百禅鞭?
俺烟酒不沾,睡眼强睁,泪腺干,哈欠响连天…

I like to read though I can't write them well.
I did not want to write it simply because it is from Japan.
Pretty stupid, ain't I?

I admit it is a school of poetry. I admire more originality than
copying, in any creation.

Can my two lines be re-orgniazed to be "諧俳", just kidding

哇--都八十了
朝诗夕拾亱为襌
神来一百禅

The fact that the majority of my classmates chose Japaneses as a second foreign language (ages ago) but me proves that I wrote it not because it's from Japan ( though now a bit regretful).

Many reasons for me to start with Haiku, here are a few:

1. The poet I first knew of writes Haiku and writes well.
2. Its succinct form and expression, and imagery. And momentary inspiration, insight.
3. Some of my English-speaking friends like to read and share theirs with me.
4.

- By all means.

惭愧,看走眼了。
不过,第一句,怎么给我的第一感觉是 “哇--都七老八十了 ” Laughing Laughing Laughing
