Fire (haiku)

Fire

Cinders blushing red,
Seeking wood. Desperate flames
Jump from log to log.

Well, I am not fond of Haiku's...at all. I feel they lack meaning.

So, as far as my haiku expertise goes...this is good. But I don't like the last line...it doesn't make a statement.

Sorry I can't be much help.

I like haikus! I may be the only one who does like them in this site, but still!

I think that too many weak words are used in this. Like ashes... ashes imply something that is gray and dusty. Perhaps you're thinking of embers? And brightly is such a typical word of fire... I would go for something a little more bolder.

The middle line...don't use memorable. It doesn't mean anything. It seems like you're only trying to go for syllable count. So, instead of memorable, think of other words that indirectly link up with fire.

Yeah... hope that helped!

I like them too...

Umm.. the last line really didn't work well.

That was a good try i'll call it.

Keep writing.
