Welcome to

Haiku poetry is an ancient form of poetry
that originated in Japan centuries ago
that was mostly written about the beauty of nature.
The form that this type of poetry follows
is a simple one.
The first line consists of a word or words
that contain only five syllables total.
The second line contains seven syllables total,
and the third contains five syllables total.
(Five syllables)
(Seven syllables)
(Five syllables)
What you do want to do when you write haiku:
You want to create a picture of some small moment,
connected to nature in some way.
You want to write your poem in three lines.
If possible, the first and last lines should have
five syllables,
and the second line should have seven.
You can break this rule when necessary,
but see if you can stick to the haiku form
whenever possible.
