The exercise:

Write two haiku about: the swamp.

  1. Is this prompt a reflection of how work was today? Just when you thought you knew where you were going your horse drowned and someone explained to you that the Luck dragon was just an slightly-overgrown puppy? :-)

    The swamp
    The swamp bubbles, gas
    rises and will'o'wisps dart.
    We're hunting down Shrek.

    Political swamps
    Can't be drain'd; they need fire-bombs...
    A permanent fix.

  2. Trees loom through darkness
    A rare, bright shaft of sunlight
    Illuminating.

    The only humans
    Living here appreciate
    Its hidden beauty.

  3. Greg - nah, work was okay. Just trying to find decent haiku prompts.

    Hah, Shrek came to mind shortly after I chose this prompt. I think I was trying to come up with one about him, actually, but got distracted before anything came of it.

    Morganna - ooh, I like both of these a lot. Your first is really idyllic though, so I'm going with that as my favorite this go around.
