Excellent Haiku (for rules ck author notes) 2024 Gypsy's Haiku : ~ Caterpillar Dreams ~ by Gypsy Blue Rose

c a t e r p i l l a r   d r e a m s     of becoming a beautiful butterfly— while chewing tough leaves       Author Notes HAIKU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. It resonates on a deeper level, leaving the reader enlightened and making an insightful connection. American haiku doesn't follow the 5/7/5 form, because Japanese syllables are much shorter. The rule of thumb is to write it as succint as possible and 17 syllables or less. HAIKU uses a dash to pause before the SATORI. Avoid capitalization (except proper names) and punctuation. click here to read haiku examples click here to read haiku rules click here to read why is 5/7/5 OR LESS rule Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem.
