beneath sweet blossoms
her face flushes brilliant red
at the joke he told
first kiss

at the joke he told
first kiss

Sweet as red cherries
Puts everyone into heaven
Until they forget
Two people at the beach during the night

Re: Haiku Challenge
the waves kiss warm sand
while soft moonlit silhouettes
tremble with delight

tremble with delight

...Suuurree. 
The light in the dark
Fills a soul with happiness
To be caught in glass
Butterflies

Re: Haiku Challenge
Uh... Eek!
Long dark eyelashes
Frozen all throughout this life
Sways down with movement
I tried at least... And I like your haiku about butterflies.
The worst haiku

A beautiful blue
Light as the clean, clear blue sky
Round like an oval
A train

Old engine huffing
chugging, tugging down the tracks
the conductor waves

Re: Haiku Challenge
I almost stepped on one! I wasn't even scared. Haha!
Dark green and slithers
Fast through the ground and into
The tree to go hide
That's my friend the snake that I almost stepped on. I shall call it Slither. (I know I'm weird.)
Halloween (the movie)

Re: Haiku Challenge
The sweet taste of it
Melts in your mouth with the heat
And slips down inside
This is about chocolate.
