Totally read that in Trumps irritating voice, laughing my ass of for real 🤣🤣🤣
Haha I did that too!
I wish I could upvote this again!

Welcome @diebitch
Haha good words... nice poem, we enjoyed it.
Good Luck 🍀
Unfortunately this poem had too many syllables. Your first line had six. A common mistake with Haikus. Better luck next time
Hello @moonleesteem
Here is my entry for the week
WHAT IS LOVE?!
Love can be painful
Or so much fun... to open
The heart to real love
Welcome @mayliberty
Haha this is nice and funny. We enjoyed it... especially the last image...

Sleepless nights I spend
Coz my future looks bleak
I've lost my way
Welcome @macro-d

We are currently undergoing a storm here in the Netherlands.
My favorite weather, I love it!
Sadly, nature is paying it's toll though,
hence, this weeks Haiku, enjoy:
🌳 Fallen trees 🌳
Mother nature weeps
her children bow to their knees
as silent victims..
🖤

He smiles like flower
His kiss feels like spring

Welcome, @hungry-nomad
This is a very good poem, we enjoyed reading it... but
it is not a Haiku... the first line has to many syllables in
it. Please check
I made the correction.Please do check and let me know 🙂
Ok... good to go.
Good Luck 🍀
