17 Syllables, 3 lines and a wave of emotions. Haikus are Japanese poetry and like most japanese poetry, haiku does not focus on the rhyme but rather on the syllables. This style, in particular, uses 5-7-5 syllable format. As a person who is most comfortable in free verse, I am now venturing on to delivering ideas in a short and structured style. Even if we fail even if we keep losing may we persevere Themes vary from self love, self appreciation to nature, it would really mean a lot if you could give it a shot :))
