a couple weeks ago i was doing a thing with some kids and one of our activities was to write a haiku, but we rolled a die to determine some of the required elements. we did this twice, so here are my haikus.
I) theme: flowers
character: snake
required word: green
everywhere are blooms
green grass, riot of flowers
follow the snake.
II) theme: wind
character: horse
required word: green
as if galloping
he blows the grasses over
green and flexible
and then because i had a few minutes left, i wrote a double dactyl on the same foundation:
hurchison murchison, galloping overland
blowing green grass on an incoming breeze
pounding and sounding the
incontrovertible
signs that there's pollen to make you to sneeze
