Haiku in Chocolate

I’ve just checked out The Haiku Foundation’s Troutswirl and read the submissions for the monthly KUKAI. The theme is chocolate and I can see it’s not the easiest subject on which to write a short, proper haiku. Still, an amazing variety have been submitted and readers are invited to vote on which they like best. Some are humorous, some romantic, some are almost risqué. Others deal on the child-labour aspect of harvesting cocoa pods. If you’re interested, you can READ THEM HERE.

Inspired by the various thoughts, here’s a hodge-podge of verses I’ve written on the theme. I trust some will give you a smile.

chocolate bunny
the hesitant child
nibbles the tail

mom’s chocolate chippers
still warm on memory lane
abiding comfort

children’s party
a stack of Oreo wafers
all licked clean

shopping Plus Sizes
the chocolates I’ve eaten lately
come along

eying the curves
of her chocolate cake
his heart races

her longing gaze
wanders once more to his
plate of brownies
