About something horrible?

Enjoy!

Infinite darkness.

There is a silver lining –

Treasure of the soul.

Hello there!
This week I am a little late again. But I finished this Haiku just in tim for you to see. Maybe you have some time to do as I did?

Writing Exercises 118 and 119

Hello again!
I'm awfully sorry I'm late. At least I now have two writing exercises for you. Here they are.
This is writing exercise 118:

2018/03/18 – clouds (Haiku)

A cloud in the sky

Watch it gently drift away

I wish I was there

And this is what I did this week:

 

2018/03/20 – Where's the rum gone? (Singlish poem, or is it?)

I dun have leh.

I dun have lor.

I dun have liao.

I dun have mah.

I dun have lah.

I dun have ha.

I dun have hor.

I dun have sial!

(For some reason, I don't have it. I wish I had it, but sadly I don't. I used to have it, but I don't anymore. It would help if I had it, but I don't have it.

I really don't have it.

I'm telling you that I don't have it. Don't look at me; I don't have it.

I can't freaking believe I don't have it!)

Writing Exercise 117

Hello there!
I'm a little late, but I made it in time still.
This week I wrote five Haikus for Naruto Online, one for each playable character. Here they are:

2018/03/11 – Naruto Online Haikus (fanfiction)

AzureFang

Poison and healing

Are the two sides of her coin.

Beware her Suiton!

MidnightBlade

His countless attacks –

A silent sword in the night.

Lightning strikes so fast.

ScarletBlaze

He sets you aflame

With a fierce grin on his face.

Fiery flowers bloom.

BreezeDancer

Her fan brings the storm.

The ballon of a dancer --

turn another round.

CrimsonFist

Bolster his defenses!

An impenetrable shield

will protect from harm.

Writing Exercise 114

It's the 14th of February already, so you can probably guess the topic of today's writing exercise. :D
This time I wrote a Haiku, which I also entered in the Valentine'S Haiku Contest in the Naruto Online Forum. Root for me, please! ;)
But let's see what I wrote this time:

2018/02/14 – Valentine's Day (Haiku)

Sending you my deep feelings –

Happy Valentine's!

Writing Exercise 103

2017/12/03 – advent calendar (Haiku)

Advent calendar –

Count the days until Christmas.

Writing Exercises 088 and 089

Hey there!

I can't believe I didn't upload last week's writing exercise. So sorry!
Therefore this week you get to read two exercises. That's not so bad, isn't it?
So here is writing exercise number 088:

2017/08/20 – cactus (Haiku)

Though covered with thorns

A cactus is a symbol

Of passion and love

And this is writing exercise number 089:

2017/08/24 – too tired (double drabble)

[…] As Jack reached the gates, he couldn't fully believe what was happening. He knew the world was a more wondrous and magical place than anybody could imagine – hidden in plain sight before the eyes of the oblivious and ignorant humans. Jack might be human, too, but he did believe there was more than met the eye. And ever since he had met the fallen angel he really knew there was a lot more out there than most people assumed.

In the quietness of her living room Asuka Ishimaru sat at her desk and stared at the paragraph she had written, fingers hovering above the keys of her laptop. It was 3:49 a.m. and the author had been in denial of her tiredness for hours. Her brain felt as if cushioned in cotton wool and stuck in the thickest of mists; white, blank – and impenetrable for any words to come forth. She kept on staring at the screen for a good seven minutes before she deleted the whole paragraph and sighed frustrated. Asuka rubbed her temples and sighed deeply again. It was no use. Finally she stood and trudged to bed. Deeply huddled beneath her blankets she instantly fell asleep.

Writing Exercise 061

I'm pretty late for my writing exercise this week. Still I managed to do a little something. This time it's a Haiku. Enjoy!

2017/02/11 – Haiku

Snow flakes in the wind

How I wish for winter's end!

The first snow drops bloom

Writing Exercise 033

This week's writing exercise is special. Since I participated in a contest for the game Spellstone, I didn't want to withhold the 1st prize winning Haiku (Japanese poem consisting of 5-7-5 syllables) I wrote. :D
Here it is:

2016/07/26 – Haiku for Spellstone (Contest)

Ascend Aria,

lead my dragon deck to war!

Ad victoriam!

Aria is one of the heroes you can play in Spellstone, and 'ad victoriam!' is the motto of my guild VictoriousSecret.
