A few new haiku and a poem about rhymes.

 

A new haiku

This poem hasn’t been read
By anybody before.
It’s a new haiku.

 

Blue haiku

A calm sapphire sea
A field full of cornflowers
And a cloudless sky.

 

Flu haiku

I’m not feeling well.
I’m hot and have a headache..
I think I have ‘flu.

 

Flew haiku

It’s autumn again.
So the birds have flown away
To sunnier lands.

 

Gnu haiku

I asked a gnu if
He knew any new haiku.
But he shook his head.

 

Rhymes

‘Can you give me a short rhyme?’
Said the teacher.

‘Caught,’ said Amanda.

‘Can you give me a long rhyme?’
Said the teacher.

‘Wrong,’ said Jason.

‘Can you give me a brief rhyme?’
Said the teacher.

‘Leaf,’ said Maria.

‘Can you give me a straight rhyme?
Said the teacher.

‘Wait!’ said Javed.

‘Can you give me a near rhyme?’
Said the teacher.

‘Weary,’ said Kevin.
