Two Haiku

This is the last poem in the Poetry Unit from my Freshman year (the beginning of 1994 sometime in March).  Don't worry though.  I seem to have written many poems after that which I stuck in this folder.  Some of them have dates and some of them don't.  I'll post the dates when I know them.

"Assignment 6:  Create two haiku.  Suggested topics are butterfly, clouds, kitten, weather.  Remember:  Haiku is a poem of three lines with five syllables in the first and third lines and seven syllables in the second line."


Rain

Sadly I look out.
Through my window pane I see,
The rain fall softly.


Alone

Alone in my world,
I write of the pain of death.
Tears fall on the sheet.
