    By forcing you to condense your thoughts into 3 lines, Haiku must be very challenging to write. It is a truly interesting form of expresssion.

    Very lovely lens. I have enjoyed Haiku for many years and appreciate the depth of just a few lines. Haiku can also be hilarious, as in this Microsoft error message that always makes me laugh:

    With searching comes loss
    And the presence of absence:

    thnks for dropping by my lens:))
  • haikuwedding Jun 24, 2011 @ 11:01 am | delete
    Yes, the term "haiku" is a "form of Japanese poetry that states in three lines of five, seven and five morae (sound/syllable/word) a clear picture designed to arouse a distinct emotion and suggest a specific spiritual insight. - adapted from LITERATURE HANDBOOK by Holman.
