For the creative, artistic and surreal amongst us...
A Haiku has 17 syllables and no more than 4 lines ( usually 3 )
The syllable scheme can be 5-7-5, 6-5-6 or permutations there of...it must include a reference to a season and can have one comma if desired to indicate contrast (ie. night day, happy sad etc...)
So for example:
Sunshine open spring tune
Bird song lift spirit
Life rhythm colour bloom
- self composed.
Please have a go.
It is challenging and fun.
Haiku. |

Happy Summers
Kissing lovers
Hitch-hiking highway
