cloud_big.jpgbanana_red.jpgA Haiku is an ancient Japanese form of poetry. It has a syllable pattern of 5-7-5.

Here are examples:

Looking at the clouds (5)
blue in the ice-wind they roam (7)
space flows around me. (5)

Ripe red bananas. (5)
Growing on the high tree tops (7)
Each is a sweet treat. (5)

Can you write a Haiku with the 5-7-5 pattern?
