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!

Listen to that wind,
so cold from up those mountains,
Freeze you to your bones
der schutte
that icy cold wind
separating blood from bone
and no puncture kit
FB
Fleeing from pursuit
Along the road of hope or
The road to nowhere
The road not taken
will always leave the dreamer
wondering " What if "
Yay Destiny! I was wondering when you were going to pop in. Nice one.
Southern Nevada
Something-or-another Gulch
I know this place well
Maybe Mexico
a day northbound of La Paz
I know this place well
Or Arizona
canyonlands north of Flagstaff
I know this place well
A wide open road
to a point in the distance
I know this place well
Thanks NB I have been lurking for a while ;) I have enjoyed reading everyones input
Mir,
That absolutely worked! Nice one.
700 klicks
don't think, just grab the throttle
by nightfall you're there
Hey, does anyone else want to pile in on the front page? I'm thinking the Schutte and Destiny could do it instantly what with having blogger profiles. All you'd have to do is pop over to the church blog and post a comment saying 'don't publish' with your blogger email address in it. Then I email you back and you're in. It's really simple.
And then you can feel free to post as infrequently as you like, ha ha. There's zero responsibility and I'm perfectly happy to pick up the slack.
Su? FB? Mir?
a long road behind
minds meeting where lines converge
at a point unseen
oh, that lonely road,
just another lost highway,
one step at a time.
Travelling, on this road
In this mode,
I'll carry my load
