PAST EVENT - Spring Haiku Contest

Outlaws, Bandit Nest
Surprise Attack, Gunpowder
The Lost Skull, Traitors

TSO Settlers
free gems to win with haikus
Excelsior

drunken generals,
Use brew to recruit and train,
they stagger afield

Buff and buff and build
Re-build, re-build, trade, re-build
Now support the guild!

Sunshine, flowered hills
Easter lilies, short sleeved shirts
Drunk recruits charge, die.

Haiku eleven
Ten precursors posted whole
Sprung precocious forth

Now comes number twelve
Ponderous, strained, struggling thing
Five, seven, five trap.

Into the mouth, light,
Streaming probability,
Galaxies' cast offs.

Copper ore and bar
Iron ore, iron bar, steel
Gold ore, damascene.

Outlaws spring attack
Victory at lesser cost
Blocks must hold not fail.

A gem mine is found.
Frantic Settlers jump for joy.
A happy ruler.

Easter has ended
Make sure to fry all your eggs
Don't forget some cheese

Gold ore is rising
People are still complaining
Where is my granite?

My Explorer found
me salt petre last night so
Killed the idiot

Start an adventure,
Invite someone for D.P.
Inappropriate.

So many haiku
Which to choose, which to remove.
Who cares, it's random.

Submit another
Oddly shaped haiku. Like this.
Just for more chances

If it was "Two Bee",
That is the question I screamed.
Alas, not "Two Bee."

Spring is here, behold
robins singing songs of love
new life everywhere

The leaves have returned.
The rain begins to get warm.
Summer is coming.

I love thunderstorms.
Warm air wars with the cold air.
Let's go storm chasing!

Once Spring has returned,
all the animals go nuts,
to reproduce more.

When Spring has arrived,
all the flowers start to bloom.
Rotten allergies.

The sun is shining.
The chill in the air is gone.
It's finally Spring.

Raindrops keep falling,
On my head, they keep falling.
I really hate Spring.

Raindrops keep falling,
they keep falling on my head.
My hair is now wet.

Spring is for planting.
In summer the crops shall grow.
Autumn harvesting.

The days grow longer.
The air grows warmer until
Summer has arrived.

The air is cold now.
Tomorrow will be warmer.
Wonderful weather.

After the snow melts,
Before the heat of Summer.
Comes the reign of Spring.

His arms are hairy.
They can tell when it will rain.
The hair stands up straight.

Beautiful Spring smell:
Lilacs, tulips, lilies too.
I just want to breathe.

Flowers everywhere.
But, then frost comes overnight.
The flowers turn brown.

Island spring flower
Blue waters golden wheat field
Mills make the flour

Birds chirping Springs song
Wandering deer the hunter meats
Sausage for baskets

time passes and flows
my buildings beckon to me
forever a sloth

A gem sale would be
important to me for I
need a shopping spree!

The following limerick is of unknown origin:[4]

The limerick packs laughs anatomical
In space that is quite economical.
But the good ones I've seen
So seldom are clean
And the clean ones so seldom are comical.

So with that said; Here is my Limerick

A Limerick of Time

memories strolling through my mind,
I can see the faces with the passing of time.
Behold, I can see those that are young and then old.
Questions brought by memories of mine,
And some answers are still hard to find

it's haiku time not random limerick time.

Spring came just in time,
Floaty houses being built.
Beach party, come on!

sun sets across land
wind blows through trees of Elysium
as light comes to end
