Haiku

japanese culture

just seventeen syllables

form of abstract art

The Island

blue sea rages

a concord of green and brown

a-typical island

Firstly, this is the picture the haiku is all about.

 

Secondly, it matches the prompt because it does not follow the classic haiku rules. Though it has 17 syllables, the 5-7-5 rule isn’t followed. You wouldn’t find something like this on my blog, because I somehow always make sure I follow the rules of writing, at least the rules of haikus. :P

This post is written for Project 365’s Open-to-All Prompt for today.

Font Fight

It’s been quite some a long time since I began debating about handwriting with one of my blogger friends. I was supposed to send her a sample of my artwork a month ago, but I was in two minds if I should share my unique calligraphy (I’m just joking) with someone who has a common font.

My first take goes on Shruti’s handwriting (PS: Shruti blogs at A Shade of Pen).

elegantly spread

curved at the right places

just holy handsome

Sadly I have now reached the point when I have to let into open my own scribbling. Read further at own risk. :P

illegible scrawl

letters stuck together

it’s my own font

Note: This handwriting is not to be taken to heart. The same haiku above is written in pen and if you cannot read it do not ponder on it. As said by my teacher, it has been known to cause spectacles, so do not take any risks. :P
