Ok. Now I get it. I found out how to play Haiku Tag.

It is simple. You take the last line of the haiku before you and use it as the first line of yours.

Let's have at least two guidelines besides that one. It must be about nature and the haiku must adhere to the 5-7-5 syllabic pattern.

I'll start it off with a previous haiku.

The dragonfly says
Hurry. Before you know it
Summer will be gone.

Now, the next person must begin their haiku with

summer will be gone

Remember to stick with the 5-7-5 pattern and the haiku must be about nature.

The next person must begin their haiku with the last line of the one before it, on and on.

Get creative!

Reviving Falls charm,
in the canyons of my mind
colors fill the void.

Colors fill the void
From out of that gray darkness
Rainbows of pure hope.

Rainbows of pure hope
Dance tugging at my heart strings
Shinning rays of love

Shining rays of love,
Resplendant light thru darkness,
Morning's constant rise.

Morning's constant rise.
gave way to swirling dark clouds
Lightining's whip cracks

Lightening's whip cracks
Opening the darkest cloud.
Pent up rage released.

Escape their prison
Silent eyes beg for release
Where no man rules

Where no man rules -
Only Mother Nature reigns;
Obey or she will raise cain.

OK, folks. Let's stick with the guidelines and play fair. 5-7-5 syllabic pattern.

Escape their prison
Silent eyes beg for release
Where no man can rule

Where no man can rule -
Only Mother Nature reigns;
Obey or she will raise cain.
