The Haiku is simple. Five syllables in the first line. Seven in the 2nd line and five in the 3rd.
Try it, It can be fun. Here is a pageful!
Time has its own time——–It unfolds at its own pace——–Fast or slow, it goes.
I read and I write——–Working to fill a time with thought——–It works and then does not.
Been smoke and cloud-filled——–Not a good time to go out——–Try to be fulfilled.
Age is a topic——–What to do with it?——–A question I try to answer.
This day is just fine——–Sun, blue skies, mountains so clear——–One of those sweet days.
Often our state of world——–Troubles me and I know zero——–Or can do nothing.
Nice to be in touch——–Hearing from you, so good——–Thank you for doing.
This day is vital——–How many more are left us——–Enjoy the gift.
How lucky to be——–I see, I hear, I feel now——–What else do we need?
Time cannot be held——–It is not a thing or place——–Or river that flows.
Enjoy each moment——–It leaves too soon and now what——–Waiting is foolish.
We are so unique——–None the same and yet we try——–Be yourself and glad.
Words are a challenge——Be sure of how you use them—-Often misunderstood.
Nature offers so much——–vTry saying this as Haiku——–It is original.

Sy Ogulnick received a BA from UCLA, Teacher’s Credential from Los Angeles Board of Education and completed phase I (Master’s portion) in a Doctor of Behavioral Science program at California Coast University. Sy leased and operated a summer day camp in LA. He and his wife then purchased virgin wilderness land in Northern CA, where they built and operated a coed summer camp. They moved to Las Vegas, NV, and purchased, built and operated a community children’s program for families staying in a major resort casino in Las Vegas. They have created programs for children nationwide that employed many people and in the process developed successful training programs for personnel. This led Sy to lecture on how to train staff and the creating of community within the workplace. Sy was then invited to speak at professional conferences on how best to hire and train employees, which led to his becoming a consultant in the art of improving relationships in a work environment and eventually to his epiphany that “Leaders are the primary problem and the answer to the personnel issues that arise in the workplace.” Sy has written numerous papers on the subject of interpersonal relationships, leadership and power. He has lectured throughout the United States, has been interviewed by the media and has appeared on many radio and TV talk shows
