Curled up sleeping cat
Dreaming of nightime prowling
Mice and birds beware
plump,angry Blue Jays
under aged forsythia
pecking barren ground
nice haiku :) at office catherine, creativity dead :) wud come back with one :)
Loved your haiku Cat. Like timid children afraid to make an appearance.
Here's what I came up with:
Glad tidings you bear
of sunny, sweet days galore
warms my heart with joy
Loved the pic - Loved the Haiku.
Scooting to office right now. Am already an hour late.
I'll come through, you know it. :-)
(This doesn't count as flirting right? Right? :D :D)
On the rainy grass
A child drops her candy
Ants celebrate
cat, i'm no good at counting syllables. did i do this right?
and i LOVED cori lynn berg's haiku. :)
of course she dresses
in lime and emerald gowns;
spring has sapphire eyes
or maybe
crocus, crocus, sings
the frog who does not see me.
crocus, crocus, croc -
or…um…
excited children
up before the sun, gently
shaking our shoulders
ok...i'm stopping....
By all means Joaquin.... please keep going on. :-)
Love the frog one. lol
Err... here's one. Will bang my head harder.
Am bad with syllables too. :(
Sinking inch by inch
In ocean of disparity
Blue blinds my eyes
Joaquin, why did you stop? each was so delicious! i loved the frog one too :)
This ice-cold office.
Will you trade places with me,
O sunny-winged crow?
listen to the earth
sway along the sun's sweet song
dance beneath the stars
*I have to say the picture is really, really nice!
Tender azul bloom
push us past the icy gloom
portend laughing run through field
Tender azul bloom
push us past the icy gloom
portend laughing romp
(trouble counting too!)
Tender azul bloom
push up past my icy gloom
portend laughing romp
(okay, final version... sorry for multiples)
Wow! What a wonderful way to wake up this morning, to find all of the joyous Cro-ku! I found myself smiling and giggling all the way down the comment section!
Cori Lynn, Welcome! You know my heart with the cat thing! I was over at your blog yesterday, and I will be back, gorgeous! You are soul kin.
Lorenzo, LOVE it, Cori's cat is going to get one of those jays!
Hi Sawan!
Margaret-Beautiful!
LGL-Love both Haikus! You got the second one right in its syllables. The second one describes Spring fever perfectly!
Joaquin-I love all of these, so wonderfully perfect! The first one, romantic and gorgeous, the second, funny and silly, the third, innocent and childlike. You are amazing!
Karen-Thanks about the picture! It was inspired by one of Jason's photographs, remember? The blue is not quite the same, but it's a good study and I'm going to keep working on getting the color just right. Lovely haiku!
Dr. JAM, GREAT to see you on here! I see your inner editor at work, and a good job it did, the last one is the best. Funny what one little word can do, yes?
You forgot me????? *sob sob*
Aniket! I'm so sorry! I had a special comment for you, and then went right by! I was going to say, NO MORE SAD. It is hard to pinch your cheeks when they are frowning! I throw you a rope, find the little orange guys in the blue, they want to play!
Me not talking to you anymore!
I demand a promise for an extra large toblerone whenever we meet!
Oh that's substandard chocolate. I'll bring you something extra special, I promise. There are amazing chocolate options these days.
SUBSTANDARD You call Tobleroene substandard???
I like it way better than Hershley's orLindt or M&M's, etc.
I guess I'll just have to see what you come up with. ;-)
If Tolbleroni is substandard than those other things you mentioned are supersubstandard squared! No, all those chocolates taste like they are made of wax. Here, we have chocolate shops with chocolates that have chili pepper for a little kick, and one of my favorites is the chai chocolate. They are little bon bons, just one mouthful each, and so light and delicate that they melt like angels tears on the tip of your tongue.
Unfold arms, no fear
Mother's embrace is calling
Time to awaken
This is a superb blog, which I have only just stumbled upon. Full of good things and so varied. Excellent.
how wonderful...
Aine, that is SO beautiful, and I am THRILLED to see this little peeping of poetry from your lovely (non-photoshopped) fingers. It makes me so happy that you poe'd here. You also happened to express the same sentiment I felt when I painted it. Those little sleepyheads..., time to get up and play! :-)
Dave, Welcome! And thank you, please come back, there is much fun to be had. :-)
Hi Shadow! Welcome to the party! Feeling Haiku-ish?
I'm very honored to have a hand in inspiring this painting!!
And you even inspired Aine to write poetry! You rock!
What a gorgeous painting, Cat.
Loved your Haiku!
Dainty little birds
Like blue flowers in the grass
Or puddles of tears
Cat, come read my story, for crying out loud.
Cat
This is my very first attempt at Haiku
In front of all you veterans...what am I???
Still, I couldn't resist myself from not typing this...pls bear with me...
Catamaran sings
A lonely song that brims with
Melancholy;sinks!
Another one:
Sweet sojourn, my home?
A screech, a cry, a joy, O
Love, Spring is ne'er too far!
It was so tempting to write..now tht I've written, I feel unburdened!! This could very well be cald an eccentricity of an artist:)
Wow Deepa! Your paintings are great too. But you should seriously credit your writing with much more than you do. Loved them a lot. :P
Never saw this side of you. :)
Jason, and it was such a wonderful Haiku! Your picture was fantastic, I am thinking I want to try this again in oil, so as to try in a different medium to capture the amazing periwinkle color of that petal. There's not quite enough red in the blue in this picture... It needs to be just short of lavender.
K. Puddles of tears! Love it! :-)
LGL-Alright already, geeze la wheeze! (just kidding, GREAT story I loved it)
Deepa-Fantastic, both of them! I'm so glad you found this little challenge inspiring, because look what little gems came out of you!
Aniket-(squeeze of cheek)
I was literally peeping between my fingers for fear of the comments:)
Thanks Cat..so very much! I feel thrilled to the core...Really!!!
Thanks Ani, for being so generous:)
Yeeeeyyyyy! I am so HAPPY!
The crocus pushes
past the cramped, cold otherwise
anticipates now
Wonderful haikus from everyone! And I, too, am especially delighted to see a lovely one from Aine. :)
Beautiful painting, Cat. I do so love those little guys.
glory of the dawn
blooms open their hungry maws
gulping rays of gold
I am totally with Jason n Sarah on this one. :)
You certainly have something about you Catherine.... To make everyone excited and post great stuff here. :)
Aine claims not to be a writer but she's outperformed herself here. :)
Great ones from everyone here...
That's why I love Haiku, everyone gets tempted to write one. :P
Cat, you rock! :D
Sarah, Gorgeous! "To heck with cold, I'm comin out!"
Rachel, Gulping rays of gold...love it.
Deepa! I'm so glad you participated! Isn't it fun!
Aniket, Everyone here totally rocks, because see? Each and every one produced a gem!
visiting your blog
like springtime bloom against brown
with fragrance of words
Straying from the Spring theme as the weather here is Winter-like one day and Summer-like the next, here are two Haiku's that I wrote referencing two of my favorite works or Literature:
Franz Kafka’s “Metamorphoses”
awoke dung beetle
parents conceal from friend’s view
son laying in room
Albert Camus’ “L’Etranger”
mother died today
no sympathy, shot Arab
beach, hero absurd
I can't write haiku, but here goes:
Catherine Vibert is
an amazing artist and
she makes me smile now.
Okay, that doesn't do you justice. But I had to say it. I'm gone for a couple of days, and look at all you have done! My jaw is dropping. Beautiful:)
QDB!! Thank you!
Minister! Dude! You're back from a long long hibernation, I'm so sorry it is still freezing way way way up there. Only person I know norther than you is Rachel, she's up there in the Yukon. Please hang on, it WILL come.
Julie-You are so awesome. :-)
Oh so pretty! I love crocuses. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face this morning, Cat.
I do have a crocus haiku over at MPP but can't remember it right now LOL!!!
Hugs and Happy Weekend, G
Can't believe I missed out on this Cru-ku fun! Here is mine:
golden faces peek
above azure satin gowns;
let the dance begin
um...that would be "Cro"-ku...
Geraldine, :-) I'm so glad it made you smile. You have some wonderful haiku on your blog.
BSP-Thank you, that is gorgeous! :-)
