HAIKU
A poetry form, with three lines of the first
being 5 syllables, the second 7 and then 5 for the third.
The Haiku usually contains the elements of the spiritual or the
human condition within nature.
I often will deviate from the purity of the definition.
|
.
Among my Haiku poems are my worse, and my best.
The more traditional theme for the haiku will be found in the
Nature,
Creation & Pet
categories.
See also the
LUNE and the
QUIO.

Custom Haiku Poems for
Brandi & Rachel
Rachel requested
a haiku for Brandi of
Courtice, Ontario in Canada.
Brandi likes Soccer and her favorite PoetPatriot haiku is "Example"
about my Yorky.
(Actually that yorkie, "Angel" has passed on. My wife's current Yorkie bitch
is "Crickett.")
These haiku poems were based upon very little information.
