HAIKU! Bless You! **Art Slam**

The idea behind this week’s prompt is using poetry as your journaling. I selected the haiku because I thought it would be the easiest for participants to play with.

Basically, haiku is a traditional Japanese form of poetry. It is a 17-syllable verse form consisting of three metrical units of 5, 7, and 5 syllables.

Here is an example:

An old pond!
A frog jumps in-
The sound of water.

Have fun this week playing around with poetry and especially haiku.

Very nice! I read somewhere that each haiku is supposed to let you know indirectly which season it is. This one reminds me of spring.
