That I should write Haikus while
I am in Japan

Temples are pounding
To the point of distraction
It's defeat's pennance

Glowing pink clouds hang
Above a bright orange orb
That sinks into fog

Small splashes of white
Accentuate the current
Of a deep blue bay

Sun sets as we dock
Stepping out into warm air
Friday's commute ends

Cell phones chime and ring
All around me on the boat
Some sanctuary

Games are only fun
In the event that there are
Two willing players

Order in nature

A haiku is a poem of three lines consisting of 5, 7, and 5 syllables in that order. It originated in Japan in the 17th century but gained popularity in the west in the early 20th century due to adoption by English language poets such as Ezra Pound.
