shines on spider's diamond web — lucky I don’t clean |
Recognized |
Diamond can be 2 or 3 syllables depending on what dictionary you check. So my haiku can be 4/7/5 or 4/8/5, either way it's 17 or less syllables.
Kigo: Fall (Spiders tend to move into the homes during the fall season)
Haiku is a Japanese poem about nature. The form is 5/7/5 (17 syllables) OR LESS in a short/long/short form and as succinct as possible. Write two grammatically connected lines of concrete imagery and a dash at the end of the second line. The third line is a moment of observation, reflection, or insight. Avoid poetic devices: Alliteration. Personification. Puns. Rhymes. Metaphor. And Simile.
