he went up to me for a kiss 2006-08-07 . chapter 1
Its a good poem, but it wouldn't be Haiku because it goes by that pattern 5, 7, 5 right? Anyways you might want to put this in different section?

This had really nice, vivid imagery. I really enjoyed reading this.

I was reminded of the old days when i read this. Again, simple but I like it.

I love this poem. So simple but (for me, at least) had a lot of meaning. Obviously there is the fantasy meaning of magic and better times, but this made me think of childhood. When you're little and you beleive in things you're happy. Whenever you wanted something, you normally got it. I'm 20 now and no wishes come true, you actually have to work for everything whereas like I said, normally your parents did that sort of thing for you. The older you get, the less you beleive.

This was drenched in saddness. It was obvious from the opening line that this was about someone in a wheelchair, but the rest of the poem and the authors note made this all the more tragic. I'm really sorry for your loss.

The first two lines in this were great, but I think they were let down by the last line. Or maybe I just don't get it, who knows. Not bad but I like the first two haikus more.

Again you have mixed beauty with darkness. This had an almost violent context that worked well for it. I love the contrast between the first and third lines, that really hits home.

This haiku was very well written. It may not have followed the 5-7-5 rule but I don't see that as a strict rule (as I've said many times, and written a haiku about). More of a guideline. This shows the inner workings of people and the ways they go about hiding such thought and feelings. I really got the 'ignorance is bliss' vibe from these words. Fantastic job.

Beautiful and hauntingly true.
