Haikus

1. A tin can rattles Strong wind blows it down the street Singing "I'm dancing!" 2. A drunk is shouting Swearing loud at everyone Prayers of thanks for booze. 3. Summer sun so hot This would make good holidays If we'd food to eat! 4. So much snow we see Depth of winter holds the earth So good for our skiing! 5. Dog is racing fast Barking at the spinning wheels Its all he can do. 6. The ball is bouncing With children playing joyfully Now none: broke window. 7. We love all mankind Except those we've reason To hate: they're bad! 8. There's no better love Than the faithful pet dog has For his bad owner 9. As we live our life Is how when death it comes We'll be judged as good. 10. Thunder inspires Fear in the fearful hearts and Awe in hearts of hope. 11. A Coward thrives On fear instilled on others: Call his bluff for proof. 12. God is a chess player Man is but a pawn of his Each holds but a square 13. Winter closes in Cold dark and long nights approach Good for needed rest 14. Long after I'm dead People will think and speak of me Like the cold winter 15. Hell is where lives The pious churchgoer who feared God Who hated his neighbour 16. If you love money And you desire much riches Your spirit is poor.

Although I like all 5 of these haikus, I like the 5th one the best. The reason why the 5th haiku stood out to me because I think that there is a underlying message within that haiku. The others though, were quite silly, and funny, but all five were pretty well written overall.

Nice job. I really enjoyed these a lot.:)

Nice collection of haiku. Numbers 4 and 5 stand out the most to me.

I personally like number five the most....
Yea, it's all he can do alright...and I do think that there is a veiled message in that one.
The others were cute, silly, quaint, whatever...but the fifth one man...that one has bite to it!

Like the dog one best as I sympathise with the mut's misguided enthusiasm and wasted energy.
