I've written some haiku in my day, mostly low-quality, but damn, it's easy and the simplest way to express an impression of nature in 17 syllables. So, without further ado, I give you my crappy haiku: Promise not to laugh.
The green hanging vine,
Trails across the cold, still pond,
Spring’s glorious bloom.
The young tree grows fast,
Then it is a monolith,
So ancient and wise.
Bird hatches from egg,
Its mother is so happy,
Now it learns to fly.
Bright flowers blossom,
Cherry trees are beautiful,
And now springtime comes.
Wind in a valley,
It rustles through the tall trees,
Tidings of winter.
The small flower thrives,
Out in the glowing sunlight,
Nature’s great bounty.
The great sun smiles down,
Sending her rays of glory,
Nourishing the earth.
Well, I managed to find ONE non nature-inspired haiku. It's pretty bad, cause it was really late when I wrote it.
Does ever the end,
Justify the means? Is one,
Right in doing wrong?

Umm... yeah. I think I'll give haiku and philosophy a rest for now and go grab AWAY FROM THE LIGHT. Expect to see it sometime soon.
