Haiku #1

I have no idea where this came from.

If the world is my

Oyster, then why is it so

Hard to find a pearl?

Author's Note

I just need some opinions on this one.

I smiled after reading this one. And just to answer the question about the pearl, maybe because you're not in the right depth of the ocean. Haha. I answered that just for fun. Anyway, I want you to know that It is lovely. And even though it made me smile, it also left a prick in my heart. I hope you find the pearl, though. :)

Lol, thanks, I guess I should have gone that extra 2 leagues down... Anyways, thanks for the encouragement, and I hope that if you haven't found yours already that you find it soon and hold it close. :D

[EloisaWrites]

Thanks! I'll remember that! :)

You're welcome! :D

I'm not a fan of haikus, honestly, they don't make much sense as they probably sound better in Japanese. Yet this is rather profound and deep but simple. 16 words. This is like the only tweet i have ever read that did not waste my time and did in fact make me think. Thank you.

You're very welcome! Thanks for the words of encouragement. :)

I love that idea. Only thing is in a haiku it follows a 5/7/5 pattern but you've got 7/5/7 But I think this has such a great idea in it, and I like how it's expressed in such a short space.

OMGosh, I feel so dumb now because I forgot the syllable scheme... But thank you nonetheless for the review. :)

Sarrow, I think this haiku does in fact follow the 5/7/5 pattern. Unless I'm looking at it incorrectly and I suddenly have developed clinical dyslexia, help me out here. :)

No, you're good, I fixed it like that. Sorry for the confusion.
