At Carpe Diem Haiku Special I read:
Today I love to introduce an all new feature here at our Carpe Diem Haiku Kai Special weblog. I have called it ''Full Circle'' and the goal is to write haiku with the twelve (12) words I will give. It's a kind of word-whirl and you have to use the words given in the clock-wise direction. So every word has to come in the line of it's place on the clock e.g. cherry you have to use for line one (1) and leaves for line two (2) and so on.
1. cherry 2. leaves 3. breeze 4. solstice 5. beach 6. love 7. departure 8. moon 9.
mushrooms 10. icicles 11. blizzard 12. fireworks
So Here I Go!
cheery trees and leaves
caressed by the breeze shiver
before spring solstice
caressed by the breeze shiver
before spring solstice
walking on the beach
two people in love embrace
before departure
two people in love embrace
before departure
moon beams fall
upon mushrooms in the woods
the owl hoots
icicles hanging
the blizzard raged suddenly
the bear sleeps soundly
the blizzard raged suddenly
the bear sleeps soundly
children on the lake
enchanted by the fireworks
at Riva in August
