About this Blog

A Japanese form of poetry using three unrhymed lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables. A Haiku can be about anything, but usually gives readers a variation on the norm. Divided into two parts, both are independant of one another while enriching the understanding of each and are usually divided by a colon, a long dash or ellipsis. Each contains a Kigo (season)word, ex.; summer, winter or something less obvious. Of course nothing is set in stone.
