LUNE is a short poem with three lines, similar to haiku in that it uses imagery and succinct composition but has no other rules. Lune poetry originated when American poets noticed that writing a haiku in English isn't the same as writing one in the Japanese 5/7/5 syllables mold. American poet, Robert Kelly, created the lune in the 1960s. The SYLLABLES LUNE consists of 5/3/5 syllables. There is a variant lune created by poet Jack Collom. His form is also a self-contained tercet, but his poem is WORDS LUNE (not syllable-based) and has the structure of 3 words in the first line, 5 words in the second line and 3 words in the final line. click here if you want to read more
