How to Write Haiku


I was not aware

that Japanese poetry
was held in esteem.
(AL)

Five syllables here.
Seven more syllables there.
Are you happy now?
(Anon)

Painting a picture,
A seasonal connection,
Various other things.
(AG)

Moral reflection,
Metaphorical sense of
Image, stuff like that.
(LF)

A twist or reverse
Of image between second
And third of your lines.
(ND)

A sting in the tail –
The last word or image should
Come as a surprise.
(LF)

More here, and links to the rest.
