Carpe Diem's "Little Ones" #2

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

Several days ago I introduced to you a new feature "Little Ones" and I think it was a success, because Pi-ku and One-line haiku are great to create. So I thought .... maybe we can do another "Little Ones"-episode. So here it is ...
The goal of this new feature is to look behind the haiku and try something new e.g. a Pi-ku, based on the mathematical number 'pi' 3,14, in which every number correspondents wit the syllables of the sentences of the Pi-ku. So the 1st line has three syllables, the 2nd has one and the 3rd has 4th syllables. And if you will bring up more numbers of 'pi' then those numbers also stand for the syllables.

early spring breeze
rain
first narcissus

Another "little one" could be an acrostic haiku. What is an acrostic haiku? The first characters of the three lines are making one word for example SUN

Sweet memories
Under the old appletree
Newly weds

Isn't it a wonderful way to write haiku? You've to look past the lines to make an acrostic haiku, so you've to think it over ... and over ... not an easy form I think. Another acrostic one ... this time with ONE

Only eyes for you
Naked she lays down on the beach
Everlasting love

Not a strong one, but ... it's an example. I am not so familiar with three character words in English.

Another "little one" is the Naisaiku, maybe you know that form, because I have introduced it earlier in the history of Carpe Diem. It's a wonderful 'artistic' (and artificial) form which I enjoy to write.
As you maybe know ... the first and the third line of a haiku can be interchanged. I will give you an example:

lonely flower
my companion
for one night

When we interchange the first and third line the haiku becomes as follows:

for one night
my companion
lonely flower

Now we are gonna make this a Naisaiku:

lonely flower
my companion

for one night
lonely flower

for one night

my companion

lonely flower

This Naisaiku is titled "lonely flower", because of the use of the first line for the 'moment interchanging'. You can make also a Naisaiku with the 2nd and 3rd line as title. Let us give it a try.

lonely flower
my companion

for one night
my companion

for one night

my companion

lonely flower

And with the 3rd line as title it becomes:

lonely flower
my companion

for one night
for one night

for one night

my companion

lonely flower

Well ... do you like this Naisaiku? Just try it with one of your own haiku and make your first Naisaiku ever.
I hope you liked this new episode of "Little Ones" and maybe you are inspired to try a "little one" such as a Pi-ku or Naisaiku, but of course you may use all other forms of "little ones", as e.g. One-Line haiku or teh Acrostic haiku.

This episode of Carpe Diem's "Little Ones" will stay on 'till August 25th 11.59 AM (CET). Have fun, be inspired and share your "little one" with us all here on Carpe Diem.
