Author Notes
- In the Bible, rainbows represent God's covenant with all living creatures after the Flood. - Genesis 9:8-11
- "Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud." - Maya Angelou
HAIKU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment. 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.
