Celebrate Haiku!

Be a wordsmith on Wednesday,

April 17th.

To write a haiku.

TRENDING NOW:

Try to keep it at three lines.

Count your syllables.

Five for the first line.

Seven for the second line.

And then back to five.

Lines don't have to rhyme.

Just express yourself, have fun.

Share feelings and moods.

Try your hand at the

Japanese poetry form

And see how you do.
