You know it makes sense
When the whole world seems brighter.
You've done the right thing.

You've done the right thing
When you can make children smile
It can melt your heart

It can melt your heart
When they apologise for
Breaking it in two.

Hi foxmoto....

Just to let you know. Haiku's are 3 lines of 5 - 7 - 5
syllables. :-)

When it comes to you
I am just a pushover
How can I say, "No"?

foxmoto, you start with the last line of the person above you. That line will have 5 syllables. Your next line should have 7 syllables and your last line 5 syllables. That makes the syllable pattern of the three lines 5-7-5.

Is it clear now?

Blood and liquid fire
Oozing from the depths of hades
The river slowly flows.

Some some people's tolerance
It's such a big deal

It is only right
To have some conformity
It prevents chaos

It prevents chaos,
Bringing harmony to a
Disorganised world.

Disorganised world!
Loud mouths and louder egos,
Let's enjoy some peace.
