My last Monday Spark for this month is to write a fall haiku, something you love about the season. If you’re unfamiliar with the form of poetry that’s haiku, it’s a three line poem. The first line is 5 syllables, the second is 7 and the third is 5. It usually doesn’t rhyme and often describes something in nature, but if your favorite part of fall is getting a pumpkin spice latte at your local coffee shop, then write a haiku about that. Here’s mine:
For a brief moment,
The woods catch fire, but you can
Leap into the flames.
Share your haiku in the comments.
I love it!
Chilly morning dew
Noon sun still clings to summer
Bright stars and cool nights
Lovely. I especially like the middle line. A great word picture!
