A Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry that combines form, language, and content in a meaningful yet compact form.
The most common form for Haiku is three short lines. The first line usually contains five syllables, the second line seven syllables, and the third line contains five syllables. Haiku doesn't rhyme. A Haiku must "paint" a mental image in the reader's mind. This is the challenge of Haiku - to put the poem's meaning and imagery in the reader's mind in ONLY 17 syllables over just three lines of poetry.
Here are the Haiku's I wrote in traffic school
Sitting in a class
Prisoner of my mistake
Watching the clock spin
Colors of Winter
Define my clothing style
Florida is Hot
Opinions are ours
We can speak our minds freely
We cause Argument
Nutrition for mind
Food for thought, the food is fast
Mc Donald's everyday
Staring In a play
Singing, Dancing, and Acting
The theatre is life
A teacher can teach
A student may not listen
Knowledge can get lost
I Wrote those while I was sitting in class... here are some more that I'm coming up with now...
No One Reads this Blog
Away at the keys I type
My Talents Shall Grow
Early I Shall Sleep
Early Morning I Shall Rise
No Red Bull Needed
The Alarm Clock Rings
I Hit the Snooze Button hard
Back to my sweet dreams
No Girlfriend I have
No Girl-Friend I can Talk to
Oh Well, back to work
The cars that we drive
The Places that we travel
Waste alot of gas
My heart is a stone
Hardened by the girls I've met
These bitches aint shit
Haiku can be fun
It Brings Challenge to my mind
Im Writing it wrong!!!!
Crap....I just found out these poems need a theme to describe....ohh well, back to the drawing board!!
Okay, this is my attempt at a real haiku.
"Booty"
So Round and So Soft
A Man Just Cannot Resist,
A Woman's behind.
