Haikus are an interesting form of poetry that can say a lot
in few words. Writing rhyming haikus is an additional challenge. I am including
here a series of new rhymers that will help deflect the accusations that I don’t
write enough in rhyme. I write in the format that seems appropriate to the
message.
I had a lot of fun with these and I hope you will also.

Rhyming Haiku
Duel
When the sun rises,
They meet, who each
despises,
Death meting prizes.
Collision
The phone in her ear,
Made it hard for her
to hear
The greyhound so
near.
Ancestors
Pictured in the
frames,
Relatives no one can
name.
Blood all that
remains.
Adrift
Each new flake of
snow,
Wind taking it where
it can go,
Lost in ukiyo.
Inheritance
Winter does bequeath
Snow above, black ice
beneath,
Travelers enwreathed.
Spelunking
Out of your cortex,
Accompanied by dim
bulbs,
Dropped into vortex.
Buffets
The buffet’s arrays,
Display best ways to
portray
Yesterday’s replays.
