TJ’s Household Haiku – Symmetry

Vaux the Vicomte accross the lake

Prompt word: Symmetry

Nature balances

Dark, light, morning to night time

Sun drowns in the sea

Welcome to TJ’s Household haiku challenge. This week the prompt is “Symmetry” and the picture is of Vaux le Vicomte, a beautiful chateau not too far from Paris which we visited one Autumn day. The Chateau, photographed across the lake in the beautiful grounds. The whole is a perfect exercise in symmetry.

If you would like to join then use anything in either the photo or the prompt that speaks to you. As the example shows, you don’t have to use the word in the haiku, just go with any inspiration you get.

Share your haiku by putting a link in the comments (click the black speech bubble at the end of the post) and tag your haiku posts “TJ’s Household Haiku Challenge” so that I and others can find them.

Ancient umbrellas grow like mushrooms in the crowded markets in the Cambodian capital.

The prompt for last week “Mushroom” produces some very interesting haiku.

Apologies to Somali for missing the great haiku from last week “Tide”. The joys of wordpress auto decisions making regarding what is spam and what is not.
