TJ’s Household Haiku – Chaos

Rock pools on the coast of St Malo, Brittany. 

With each ebbing tide

Ordered chaos creating

New universes

Prompt words: “Chaos and order”

Welcome to TJ’s Household challenge both regular visitors and some new wonderful faces. As regular readers of the blog will know, I adore St Malo. The magnificent tides flowing in an out around the city, endlessly revealing new landscapes.

If you would like to join in then simply add a link to your haiku post using either the picture or the prompt words as an idea for your haiku and add TJ’s Household Haiku Challenge to your tags to make it easy for others to find.

I am no haiku despot by the way. You don’t have to feel constrained by the words or the picture. Any poetry generated from the prompts will be eagerly accepted. Also, if you would prefer a form like “tanka” or another micropoetry choice then please add your link.

Last week’s prompts “perfume and lost” produced some delicious interpretations.

Firstly, apologies to Willowdot21 for missing her two lovely haiku from the week before. Do check it out!
