31 March
out like a lamb
chop, the heart of winter
into memory
30 March
Ancient family cars
Bleed rust in auto graveyards
Memories decay
29 March
humble student
learns with knee bent,
wisdom...god sent
28 March
frigid w i n d blows
weathered life awry;
scatters seed of sorrow
27 March
random rain drop
pummel my peaceful pulse;
purify my purpose
26 March
muddy floodwaters
in pursuit of open space
sculpt scenes of sadness
25 March
when the lightunites
with soul-seeking-sight
acumen alights
24 March
creamy curves convey
carbon craving clay;
cosmic cabaret
23 March
Easter Sunday Morn,
jelly beans, chocolate eggs?
we're missing the point
22 March
raw march day
for a march raw day;
nippy display
21 March
P o e t i c s
agitate logic
fabricate whimsy
20 March
first day of spring
hope flowering
nature's blessing
19 March
the ants condense
in present tense
riches immense
18 March

17 March
ambivalence walks
the fence, watch the ants;
take a chance
16 March
cat
and
mouse...between
a sparrow
and a
squirrel;
equipoise preserved
15 March
rubber bay bee bump
her bound about delightful
roly-poly world
14 March
h a p p y friday
my s e c o n d monday
my t h i r d strike

EARTH
12 March
teeny tiny ant
carry your onerous load
one step at a time
11 March
Yestermorrow days
Of hazy summer substance
Silentstill the soul
10 March
frigid rain falling
threatening showers of snow
where the hell is spring?
9 March
watchful walk through woods
reveals ecological
majesty
martyred
8 March
poets with thin skins
scar and bleed too easily
ignorance is bliss
7 March
wintry, glacial chill
don't overstay your welcome
liberate springNow
6 March
raindropsEnlighten
as you descend upon Earth
root Love in my heart
5 March
tired and lonely
consciousness lacking
time to drink some tea
4 March
Crystal clear the sky
Beckons to my inner soul
History calls me
3 March
bliss beyond reason
present in any season
trust without treason
2 March
raindrops softly splat
slide slowly down the window
wash clean the winter
1 March
I admire haiku
Dearth of words, profuse meaning
Wisdom in a pinch

Also, think of 17 syllables as your absolute limit, meaning using less than 17 syllables is fine, but avoid going over 17. Ideally, shoot for 12-14 syllables, but basically go for a minimum necessary.

Now me lay down to sleep.
Mow da zeebas down like sheep.
Give dem to me nice and dead.
Me no happy til me fed.
