Contemporary Haiku (rules in my authoree notes)
A chapter in the book 2024 Gypsy's Haiku
The Old Man
by Gypsy Blue Rose
old man sits on a stump — in his mind the tree house

CONTEMPORARY 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, enlightening the reader and making an insightful connection. English Haiku doesn't follow the 5/7/5 form, because Japanese syllables are much shorter. The rule of thumb is to write it as succinctly as possible and 17 syllables or less. click here to read haiku examples
