NCIS Haiku Heaven
◄ Back to NCIS Poems
Haiku are traditionally poems with 17 syllables, arranged in three lines of 5, 7, 5 syllables each. But N-Kiss poets are allowed considerable latitude: like Gibbs, we break the rules. Usually, haikus should evoke an emotion or capture in words something that we normally experience through other senses (such as how we experience winter, summer, spring or autumn). In some of these haikus, you might spot the plot of memorable episodes of NCIS: can you name them? Some are reminders of a character's reaction to a moment within an episode: can you spot which character is evoked by the haiku?

| Abby, to attract McGee's attention claims Gibbs Fathered her baby Tony horrified Rebukes inattentive McGee Headslap. "Heed Abby". Outrageous image Gothic marine Baby Gibbs Khaki dog collar | NCIS team in love McAbby, Tiva Ment to be silent as a black cat quick as a cheeta its Gibbs Panting in the dark Tony and Ziva Undercovers |
| Kelly, Shannon, Gibbs. A family no more. Sad. But in our hearts. Always. | Gibbs, water strife Tony, kiss of life What makes friendships |

Does anyone else have some haikus to contribute to this page? Or, if you do not like writing them, any suggestions for emotional moments that we could try to capture in a haiku?
Do you find this valuable?
