This is a haiku,
It has a certain structure,
Count the syllables...

Poetry is wonderful - it can take years to finish a novel, and months to finish a poem, but a haiku can be written in minutes! The Japanese were the creators of the haiku-structure; three lines containing 5 syllables, 7 syllables and then another 5 syllables. Look at the example at the top if you're confused...

Traditionally, haikus depict something natural and wonderful; the first snowflake to fall in winter, or perhaps the sun falling below the horizon - a haiku is a tiny snapshot of a much larger image. Time for a little meditated peace! For your chance to win this competition:

Write a haiku that captures the beauty of nature!

The most zen-filled will win!

Good luck!

Prize: 5 credits + 10 rep

one perfect moment amidst


chaos raining down.

The crash of lightning
A fallen tree hath been found
A raven flies away

The river trickles,
The splashes hit my cold face
Its just me dreaming.

Summer breeze blows free
Shadows form as the sun sets
Wise Owls hunt tonight

An Old Silent Pond....
A Frog Jumps into the pond
Splash! Silence again.

Winter has left us
No more snow,wind,rain or ice
But everything nice.

Flowers Burst their colors
Birds fly up north to explore
The season is changing

Do you hear that thump,
the sound of my heart beating,
you make me feel alive.
