A Summer Haiku:


A gentle cool breeze,
A bright beautiful day,
A warm summer day.



What I wrote above is a form of poetry. This type of poem is from Japan and is considered a tough form of poetry. You firsts have to think up a theme. Mine was about summer. You make three lines. The first line has to be 5 syllables. The second line has to be 7 syllables. The Third line has to be 5 syllables again. This may not look like 5, 7 and 5 syllables, but it is. Just count the beats of each line.
