Thread: small stream haiku challenge

  1. #1

    small stream haiku challenge

    One of the things that smallstreams has been rightfully known for are the stories. We've had contests, thought about books, etc. in the past. Sure, there's trip reports and photos and all, but the stories... that's some interweb good eatin' right there~!

    So here's a fun one. To get your creative juices flowing, I'm not asking for a full blown story... post a haiku about your small stream experiences...

    Looseley translated and perfect for our use, a Haiku is three lines, in 5-7-5 syllables with at least one reference to a season.

    Sort of like this:

    water over stones
    autumn chill, leaves changing shades
    listen to the stream


    So, let's hear yours!

    I'll have a go.....

    fireflies fluttering
    scented smoke, flickering flames
    hypnotic dreamer

    Leaves fall to water.
    At the strike I lift my rod,
    A trout pulls for home.

    The strike is silent
    The response explosive
    The outcome uncertain

    Mist rising from pool,
    Smell of cedar in the air,
    Fresh day brings new life.
