Haiku Contest


Haiku (俳句) is a mode of Japanese poetry. A traditional haiku consists of a pattern of approximately 5, 7, and 5 syllables, phonetic units.
examples:

1. Behold the ego
Set in glowing emptiness
On the edge of time

2.Silence--a strangled
Telephone has forgotten
That it should ring

3.Night; and once again,
the while I wait for you, cold wind
turns into rain

4.In my old home
which I forsook, the cherries
are in bloom

feel free to post your haiku...
