House of Haiku Recap for August 2025
Three lines, no waiting
See the July recap | See the June recap | See the May recap | See the April recap
Funny how Chris J. Franklin’s single word (usually) prompts evoke our creative brain cells to quiver with excitement.
Prompts in August
We had some new participants this month and a bunch of terrific entries. Take a good look through them.
Prompt: Tree
Prompt: Paint
Prompt: Train
Prompt: Crown
Never too late to add your own to each of these prompts, and “like” any that really appeal to you.
Final Note
A great thing on Substack is NOT earning money from it but the camaraderie that grows here. These haiku prompts are an example. People come together, post their three-line poems, read other contributions, and generally have a bit of fun. Hope you’ll join in.
Please check out my author website. And thanks for reading.

My five books (so far) from Wordwooze Publishing:
From the Files of Fontaine Investigations – paranormal mystery that I had so much fun writing (ebook, paperback, and soon on audio).
The Greeting Card Girl’s Christmas – a sweet romance novel for the holiday season (ebook, paperback, audio).
Wind Down the Chimney and Other Eerie Tales – my first book of eerie short stories (ebook, paperback, audio).
The Stardust Alliance and More – my second book of eerie stories with a touch of Sci-Fi (ebook, paperback, audio).
The Wiccan Tales – a novel and a real Halloween treat (ebook, paperback, audio).
(All human written. I even designed the covers.)
