Haiku is a short form of Japanese poems (shorter than *tanka). Haiku are three lines long. The first line has five syllables, the 2nd seven, and the 3rd line five syllables again.
A haiku has to contain kigo, a word that expresses a season. Each kigo represents specific season, for example, a bush warbler represents spring and a gold fish represents summer. ~ JTB Illustrated Guide to Japan: Culture and Tradition.
Okay. Dont ask me what a bush warbler is. lol.
Anyway, to liven up the forum how about we create our own haiku for everyone to read. Put what you want in it. You dont necessarily have to put a season term in it but do make it funny or emotional!
Haiku are fun, yes. Tanuki bring them to me We laugh together.
Heh. I tried. let's see what you you can come up with!
*tanka~ a type of short poem unique to Japan, consisting of the 5, 7, 5, 7 and 7 syllabic structure.

Ok lets see what I can come up with on the spot here..
Reading can be fun. Everyone avoid Redrum. Lets learn how to drum.
Well that didn't make much sense really... Lol. Rerum is from the Shining in case anyone was windering. It's murder spelled backwards.

Though my birdies havent exhibited any intelligence I do have to say that my Budgie "Blue" is loud. ALL DAY LONG! I wish there were birdie muzzles sometimes. Blue, I adore you. Though you chirp and squeak all day Your presence is nice. 3nodding

A newborn child cradles in my arms, it's small, innocent face smling.
inside me i feel strange. Anger, hate, sadness, sorrow, all seem to melt away.
Perhaps, when my own child is born into this world, I shall feel this once again.
