Land of the Pharoahs
Your children seek their future
Live with dreams and hope.
Hepzi. February 2012
As you can see, I have been playing with Haiku again! I'm still not really into 'poetry' but I quite like this simplistic form because it can convey so much with so few words.
I would like to encourage you all to have a go and write a Haiku that is inspired by Egypt - past, present or future - and post them here.
If you would like some more examples of Haiku there are a number of threads about it, with examples, hidden in Literary Corner. Here's one of them: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=6720&hilit=Haiku
I have just found this example online and although it's not specifically about Egypt, it could well be!
Sick on a journey -
Over parched fields
Dreams wander on.
Experience is not what happens to you;
it is what you do with what happens to you.
-Aldous Huxley
I've not dabbled with any Haiku for a quite a while. This morning however I seem to be thinking about everything in a haiku pattern.
Have you ever had a go at haiku? It can be quite therapeutic....
