@Dutchy,

A real friend in need
Is like a gift from heaven,
An angel on earth

An angel on earth
Her name is firefly
One in a thousand.

One in a thousand
From land unknown
Floats on gossamer wings

@vonny,

On gossamer wings
in diaphanous raiment
seraphs glide on air

Good to see you too, firefly! Smile

seraphs glide on air
soft perfumed breeze
into silvered clouds

@vonny,

Into silvered clouds
the rains are disappearing.
The sun shines behind.

The sun shines behind.
The ladies are lining up,
wishing me good health.

@Dutchy,

vonny, you're new to this game, so let me help--the first line of the Haiku has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, and the third line has 5 syllables.

Wishing me good health,
On my one hundredth birthday,
My friends gave loud cheers

My friends gave loud cheers.
I am sitting in the sun,
the birds are tweeting.

The birds are tweeting,
The sun shines over the earth.
Welcome home, Dutchy!

Welcome home, Dutchy!
You've been missed by one and all,
Now we can relax

@firefly,

Now we can relax
In the certain knowledge that
All's well with the world.

@Lustig Andrei,

All's well with the world,
At least it is for today,
Who knows what will come

@firefly,

Who knows what will come
in the junk mail? Perhaps a
coupon for bad food.

Coupon for bad food
At least saved you some money,
Look on the bright side

@firefly,

Look on the bright side
When considering your day.
You're still breathing, right?

@Lustig Andrei,

You're still breathing, right?
Enjoy each sweet breath.
Feel joyous and invigorated

vonny, the first line of the Haiku has to have 5 syllables, the second line has to have 7 syllables, and the third line has to have 5 syllables. Wink

I'm going to have to use your second line as my first because that one has 5 syllables.

Enjoy each sweet breath
Of the bracing ocean air,
As you search for shells

@firefly,

thanks ff, I'm new to this! Embarrassed

As you search for shells
Look west and look to the east,
As gulls circle overhead

@vonny,

You're getting there, vonny, but not quite. Laughing

Should have 5 syllables--As you search for shells--5
Should have 7 syllables--Look west and look to the east,--7
Should have 5 syllables--As gulls circle overhead--This line has 7

Give it another try. Smile
