    I did a search but didn't find any Haiku threads.

    Basically it's a Japanese style poem.

    3 lines.

    1 - 5 syllables
    2 - 7 syllables
    3 - 5 syllables

    Here is an example I found online:

    Beautiful sunrise
    On a warm summer morning.
    I wait for day's start.

    Here is one I wrote:

    Eagerly Digging
    Many rare gems discovered
    Can't wait to get home

    My favourite is:

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

    :D

    Oh maybe I will
    Write a haiku of my own
    Or maybe I won't

    Haikus shouldn't rhyme
    That itself would be a crime
    I should do time
