My anime-inspired haiku! Post yours here. ^_^

Just as a reminder:
Line 1 is 5 syllables
Line 2 is 7 syllables
Line 3 is 5 syllables

This one is about a character in Naruto. Can anyone guess who I'm talking about?

Sand-skinned boy, we fear
He can kill us with one glance
We won't stand a chance.

The one and only Gara. Here is my Haiku.


In the blank snow
Under shadow by soft light
Tears flow, my goodbye.




Do you know this sad, but heart-warming anime?

Strictly speaking, that's not a haiku. A haiku isn't just about the syllables (although, having 17 syllables isn't quite correct either) a haiku also must feature some sort of word linked to a seasonal setting of the poem. I'd say these are more haiku inspired poems.

"Snow" = Winter :D No I wish. Yea I understand what you're saying and I thank you for sharing that with us, cause I've never actually heard about that before and I also wrote my Haikus based on syllables. :O

Actually, your one is ok because as you said snow does indicate winter so it does allude to a season. The original poster's one doesn't though.
