Haiku

I made a bet with one of my professors that I would write 5 Haikus. I used to always shy away from Haikus because I felt that they restrained my expression. Throughout writing these though I discovered that it could be a rewarding a poetic form that is perfect for expressing a variety of emotions, thoughts and experience.

Bright winter sun glows Golden hair shimmers and flows Numb fingered walk
Luz media pálida Con los árboles baila Abro mis ojos
Por qué me miras Con los ojos grandotes No se qué hacer
Bathtub drains slowly As pink legs stretch out and drip Incendiary thoughts swirl
Orange light refracts As streams of black water flow Asphalt bathed new
