Posted by: UmberWunFayun
Date: Aug 13 18

Haiku is a beautiful form of Japanese poetry, where the feelings evoked by the words are the most important thing. Traditionally containing references to nature, weather, or the elements, nowadays a modern haiku can have any subject, as long as it follows the strict rhythm of three lines, containing 5, 7, and 5 syllables for a total of 17. Showcase your creative side, let out the poet within, and Impress us all with your writing skills! To start you off, here's my favourite modern haiku :

Why fight all the time?
Why can't we all get along?
Let's work on world peace.

It is springtime now
See all the flowers blooming
Everything is green.

I wrote a Haiku
Five and seven syllables
You can write one too!

A night in autumn
Winds blowin' the golden trees
With a calmin' breeze.

Hallowe'en is nigh.
There could be monsters outdoors.
Stay at home; give candy.

Hey, global warming!
Fry earth while we deny you.
Just pass the whiskey.

As winter closes
Look forward to lighter days
Spring up new haikus
