5 - 7 - 5
Haiku are a form of Japanese poetry that are written in three lines with a syllable count of five, seven, five. But don't let that stop you writing whatever you like. There are no fascists here and any contribution you wish to make is welcome. Here we seek the sublime, and if we can't have that, we'll just have a laugh. It's all good.
With the current picture as your inspiration, pile in to the comments and have a go. At the end of the week I pick five and put them on the front page.
As the Japanese say - Let's enjoyment haiku!

is this one closed for comment?
sigh... it is summertime, so hard to keep up with this all.
Stillness surrounds me
In the now empty bedroom
Oh the times we had
eternal moment.
the life of insects outside.
empty for going.
Hey Pen, er no... open for comment. Otherwise pop back to the last one because John wrote something good. He was the only one who mentioned those weird straight lines in the picture.
Just out of curiosity, what were they?
And Buff, sex, sex, sex, that's all you think about. Honestly.
hey nobody;
I saw johns haiku, thanks john.
very good
what were the weird straight lines?
I assumed they were some sort of antenna.
I liked the picture, found it online, noticed the straight lines, thought they were intersting against the tree, natural vs unnatural.
I also loved the colour of the sky
Inside, empty space.
When viewed through the looking glass
A full world awaits
The straight lines in the moon picture are the light trails of an aeroplane. It is the result of taking a picture on a long exposure at night and shows the sequence of the planes flashing lights.
From Belgium
Warm, empty, sunny, sad
Derelict the seasons pass,
Ivy climbs up the walls.
thanks john!
John you nailed it. Thanks for that.
