Writings in Rhyme

Contents

The simple but clear forms of Japanese Poetry, the Haiku has reached popularity in English in the last 100 years.

In its simplest form, its a 5-7-5 format, and can be on any toppic, but in its purest form its based on morae and has to have a seasonal word, upon which the poem turns.

I prefer the simpler format, and innovate with Haiku sequence poems and also experiment with other forms of Japanese poetry.
