Alrighty then! New rules for Haiku. I will have a go at this, I hope that I will find more great ones when I wake up!

codswallop · 06/10/2003 20:12

can you tell the rest of us the rules? I didnt do english a level

Chinchilla · 06/10/2003 20:20

5 syllables for first line, 7 for second, 5 for third.

Writing these Haiku
Is quite easy, and much fun
five, seven, five is the rule

Chinchilla · 06/10/2003 20:21

oops, 7 syllables for the last line!!!

Try: five, seven, five - see! for the last line

lilibet · 06/10/2003 20:40

Would the japenese
do a suggestive haiku?
no sense of humour!

misshoney · 06/10/2003 20:41

purple tigers space rockets
from her little swing

Wow MsHoney!!
Lilliput--you are so funny, they do have a sense of humor, just not the same as ours, I think they laugh behind closed doors, don't you?
Chincilla, that is right, 5 syllables, 7 syllables and then 5 syllables. Or...you can read on the American site that I found that let's you do anything you want! Coddy. check below on the links I pasted if you want to.
