Hi Cathy...
Here are the rules I learned for Haiku...but there may be other forms???
First line - 5 syllables.
Second line - 7 syllables.
Third line - 5 syllables.
I am not sure if this fits into that scheme...is there another? Judi
Hi Judi
This form is Hay(na)ku -- not haiku. Yes, confusing isn't it?!! LOL!!
Briefly the form is
1st line -- one word
2nd line -- 2 words
3rd line -- 3 words
and you are restricted with syllable counts. Sounds easy,eh? Well I'm still puzzling on one. It's not so easy. My hat off to you Cathy!
