Nice haiku, I really liked it.
The picture is beautiful as well. Where did you find it?

Eric Socia
I’m not sure what size you can find it in. I searched Flickr for lighthouse images and that’s one of the ones I found.
Apr 17th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
Eric Socia
Thank you for that!
I found the picture on Flickr after searching for lighthouse images.

Isn’t it nice to have a blog that you can spill things to even if they don’t make any sense? It’s nice.

I tried to come up with a comment in haiku form, but I only come up with:
Why so elated?
for the first line :/
Apr 18th, 2008 at 6:01 pm
Eric Socia
Why so elated?
A girl. That’s why.
And if I had gotten a haiku comment, I would have been uber-excited. But, such is life. =P

Eric, Congrats! Women will do that to do. Now if this girl is the hurricane, what does that mean?

Hi Eric
Excellent haiku
Not many people understand the haiku poetry format and I think that is because it does not have to rhyme.

Great, now you just reminded me its Hurricane season (technically in Florida, Hurricane season is January to December).
Solid Haiku nonetheless.

I always wondered if ‘feel’ had one syllable. If it was fe-el or just feel. Haiku’s to the rescue!

This makes it sound like you are quite the masochist. I’m not sure if that is what you were going for, haha. Maybe it is just the situation. I guess it wouldn’t be masochism if you can’t deny the love since it would be out of your hands.
Very interesting, anyway.

My favorite part in your haiku is “in love with a hurricane.” The lighthouse is personified as a person that is capable of falling in love — and rightfully so, since it is a romantic image.

Lighthouses are very breath taking. I have seen quite a few up close & personal in real life. I make it a habit to go to the top & look out over the ocean (when allowed too).
The sound of the ocean, the wind in your hair, the smell of the salt water / fish, & the peacefulness inside make it all worth wild.
