    Poem Commentary

    I haven't written a Haiku since high school - a long time ago! I have seen many of them on here and figured I would give it a shot. It was a lot harder than I remember - to say so much in 17 syllables is a challenge!

    The Warning - A Haiku

    The great calm jade sea
    Silently swells murky bath
    Casting its warning

    Thank you WS! Yes, the ocean is a powerful and wondrous being!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
