Another rewritten haiku. Made a right hash of the first attempt. Always willing to learn from mistakes

The Sword of Courage
Not always beaten from steel
Forged deep in our hearts

This is a rewrite of an earlier haiku. I got muddled on the syllable count previously.

Grandpa’s finest running low
Bottled nostalgia

Starting to embrace the haiku format. Not always easy. The syllable count throws up surprises!

The brown bear that bites
Does so from hunger or fear
Rarely from malice

Starting to get the haiku format. The syllable count does throw up some surprises though.  Will start commenting more instead of just ticking like.

Darting silver-greys
Merriment deep in the dell
Elven hide and seek!

Raisin-hued sunsets
Delicious, addictive and fleeting
Cherish the moment!

Seasonal greetings one and all!
Another stab at a haiku. Hope I haven't broken too many rules!
