Cool Haiku Game

Haiku is a type of poem whose first line has 5 syllables, 2nd has 7, and 3rd has 5. Make up your own haiku Have fun.

Feel free to correct others (and me ).

It's very hot now
the sun is high in the sky
not a single cloud.

Your love wraps me up
Entangled in temptation
caught in a mindtrap..

Bob

Tienes razón, siempre es difícil escribir un poema en un otro idioma que su propio/ idioma nativo(de hecho no es tan fácil en su propio idioma.. )

No todo oro
es que brilla en estos
brillantes foros..

Dame un rato
para quedar errante -
viendo mi camino

Me han quemado
Tus lagrimas saladas
sin ningún gusto

Reckon my cyberswan's sung..
For lack of a hack...

But it has 5 - 7 - 5 in Japanese, it's not the same in other languages

I'm really bad at it, the only two(alike) that comes to my mind are:

Sorprende la noche
a tus bellos ojos.
Luz de luna.


-

Bajo la noche
tus ojos y los mios
cantan como grillos.


Two from Borges:

La vieja mano
sigue trazando versos
para el olvido.


-

¿Es un imperio
esa luz que se apaga
o una luciérnaga?

In fact if you try to translate a poem in other language, the same poem loss sense in the own words, I tell you this because, I have made it before, 'till I understood that the poems as also the songs never most be exchange to languages as far as they were created.

Hola crotalito,

Not sure what you mean here sorry?

I know you can't translate a poem into another language.. That is not what I did or attempted to do here?

Obviously my Spanish isn't good enough to write a good haiku anyway that's ok because like bob I am just experimenting. If Spanish natives have corrections or ideas on how something could be improved this is welcome as per always, bearing in mind that poetry does give license to exercise some 'poetic freedom'..
