Potential

Just beneath the snow,
Seeds and larvae, sleeping things,
Life waits underground.

By Ava

Cold Dreams

Winter pens us in,
Bodies trapped,so with our minds,
We explore outside.

Hideaway

Here is another haiku I wrote. It's called Hideaway.

A secret hideout,
Strung with leaves and happiness,
A fragment of joy.


Please get your creativity going and get writing Haiku poems!!!

Poem Share: Haiku

Hi everyone!

  
I decided to have a 'poem share'!  Every couple of months I'll pick a different type of poetry. (Haiku,Limerick etc.) February, March and April are all Haiku months!!  How my poem share will work is that anyone can write a poem in the comments and I'll post ALL submissions.  A haiku is a poem with three lines.  There are five syllables on the first and third lines and seven syllables on the second line.  My poem "Jays" is a haiku.
Here is the first submission:

The soft, warm sunlight,
Falling on my face and arms,
The sweet smell of spring.

By Virginia


Thanks for reading!!!

Review of Airborn by Kenneth Oppel

Airborn by Kenneth Oppel is a book about young Matt Cruse, the cabin boy of the air ship Aurora. Then Matt saves a dying balloonist.  The man tells Matt about beautiful, impossible creatures he saw in the clouds.  Matt dismisses the story but when Kate, the granddaughter of the balloonist comes aboard the Aurora, Matt's world is turned upside down.  Kate and Matt go on many adventures to prove the creatures are real.  But one night a band of air pirates board the Aurora. A wonderful, suspenseful book; it was a lot of fun to read!
