|
|
Ok, for those that don't know what a Haiku (Hi-koo) is here's a quicky explanation. They are really easy, simple poems moslty inspired by nature. They follow a specific form - the first line has 5 sylables, the second has 7, and the third and final has 5 also. I doesn't matter about how many words as longas the sylable count is exact.Oh, and there are no rhyming words either. I love hakiu's, I think they are so sweet and I love writing them. Here's one about beans.
small orange wonderful
simple ad small, nutritious
beans are fabulous
I hope this inspires more veggie-orientated haikus! _________________ "I talk to God, but the sky is empty" - Sylvia Plath |
