Heat and "heat"

Sensational Haiku Wednesday

Welcome to “Sensational Haiku Wednesday!”

hosted by Jenn!

The basics: Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)

Here are her rules:

Structure: While Haiku may be written by some in other styles, for THIS meme only 5-7-5 is acceptable. At least one of your haiku must be in this format.
Theme/Prompt: We have a new prompt each week, and your haiku needs to be related to it, if not include the actual word in it. Feel free to leave a word suggestion in a comment!
Linking: When you post your link, link to the blog post with your haiku, not to the main page of your blog.
Reciprocate: If you participate and post your link on my website, you must have a link back here on your post. It’s only fair.
Folks not complying with the above risk having their links removed. Don’t make me be all “Grrrr” and stuff, it makes me grumpy! Thanks for your cooperation!

This week’s theme is: Heat

Humidity Hell!

Heat indexes through the roof,

Where is the AC?

 

 

 

This global warming-

Is trying to kill me off-

Me like this? Never!!

 

 

Eyes lock from afar-

Pupils widen, pulse speeds up

Need heats from within.

 

Arms wrap each other,

the world no longer exists -

two souls merge as one.

Attitude is all,

Always believe in yourself!

Pretend if you must!

Put some sassy in your step.

Chin high at the world.

 

They will see your strut,

They'll know not to mess with you!

Confidence is learn'd.

This week’s theme is: Battle

All face struggles

how we approach them, measures

the person we are.

 

Sit in foreign lands

hoping to see tomorrow

defending ideals.

 

Losing a love'd one

Left alone to face each day

getting out of bed.

 

Giving up all else

Striving to become the best

Not all will make it.

Pace car pulls off track

Green flag waves, cars come to life

My bp goes up!

Can he hold onto the lead?

To hold the trophy?

This week’s theme is: Nature – traditional haiku challenge!

 Bending under ice

more than any modern art

Natures artistry.

The power of earth,

It's fury in water's wrath

Unstoppable force.

The air is full of

electricity and light,

I'll watch forever.

This week’s theme is: Fortitude

 Popularity

Has become more important

than our own standards.

Stand up to the crowds

Have a spine and grow a pair

back your own beliefs.

You may not like me,

but you must at least respect

my integrity.

This week’s theme is: Draft

 

Had a long hard day,

Need ice cold relaxation

Get my Irish on!

 

 

The pager goes off

Pull out, lights and sirens blare

Fighting raw power.

 I need some helpers,

look for potential minions

press them to service

 Before y'all feel the need to comment - I do know that Guinness draught is not spelled draft.  But it's my poem! so:

 

Several takes on a theme
