5 Haiku 4 WordCamp Weekend
Friday night: Driving north on 101
moon on golden grass
inspires imagination
winter snow becomes
Saturday Morning: UCSF center
Apples strewn about
WordCampers blog, compose code
converse in real life
Saturday Afternoon: UCSF
Sierra kicks ass
Automatticians spellbound
WordCamp a success
Saturday Night After Party Drive
Cotton fog fingers
undulate under summer moon
awake drowsy eyes
Sunday Drive Home South of Santa Barbara on 101
Summer sunset cars
everyone wants to get home
train whistles freedom
I’m too exhausted (from 12 hours of driving to SF for WordCamp, then 14 hours of WordCamp, and less than 6 hours sleep the last two nights) to figure out the whole haiku, tanka, hokku, senryu. For simplicity sake, and for the common blog reader, I’m using haiku to describe these 5 moments from my weekend at WordPress’s WordCamp. Feel free to comment on what form they may be!
Go here for more responses to readwritepoem’s prompt to be in the moment and write about it. And ride Creative Goddesses Poetry Train!

I like all. But the second one is my favourite!
plunging in the tunneled abyss
They certainly echo your feelings as the camp progressed.
Excellent.
Fabulous! Friday night and Saturday night did it for me.
I really like how they form a series. I love lines compose code / converse in real life. As if you were all taking turns existing in alternate worlds.
Your haiku paint memorable moments from your travels– a great way to remember your thoughts and feelings as you journey.
Great idea for jotting down tired impressions – the short length and varied subject matter really transmits the brain-too-full thing. My favorite is Saturday Night After Party Drive.
thank for sharing the fun trip.
again, I am envious, you make it seem so easy to write…
wow, nothing like waking up in the morning on the west coast to 7 wonderful comments! (it does make it hard to respond individually though!)
thank you everyone! i like seeing how different people have different favorites from the 5! I look forward to getting around and seeing your responses to this fun prompt!
I like the fourth best! But all these word snapshots are intriging.
“Cotton fog fingers / undulate under summer moon / awake drowsy eyes”
Yes, that’s exactly how it is, I remember those clouds well and that same feeling. Very nicely done.
