Leave it to you, Ricky!! Thanks for the chuckle this morning. You know I LOVE Haiku and now with this haiku of yours explaining the true structure of a traditional haiku... there should be no excuses for not reading or understanding it!! LOL Wishing you days of happy writing.....Jerry

HA! Great job and very correct! I love Haiku. Tell me, what is your opinion of poems made up of a series of Haiku? Individually they can stand alone, but together they form a longer story. I know its not traditionally correct, but I like them. Thanks for a great poem. - Rose @~
