This was written for the Trifecta Writing Challenge . I took the prompt literally and went back to a memory from elementary school.
"This
weekend we're asking you to harken back to your grade school days and write a
haiku (an unrhymed verse
form of Japanese origin having three lines containing usually five, seven, and
five syllables respectively)."
At Recess, Alone
Children
play, but one
doesn’t
join. She walks, content,
beside
her own thoughts.
walking beside your thoughts sounds so lonely.. great haiku
ReplyDeleteI love the 'walks content' Inner peace is something few have in this world.
ReplyDeleteLovely:) I knew a child like this
ReplyDeleteThis has great flow and provides a telling juxtaposition. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI love your whole story telling in just three lines. Great job with the prompt. Thanks for linking up.
ReplyDeleteThat would be me... Love the split in this haiku.
ReplyDeleteThat was me too:)
