		I had many Ba'als 
And put them into magical halls 
but they even ate the rune-adorned walls 
 
***** 
 
Tried to make a Turkish faction 
Didn't have the original copy 
Cast wish for "digital download" 
 
***** 
 
Sort of Jomonese poetry 
Becomes addictive and is easy 
Even for non-English speakers it is so easy

		JaghataiKhan, 
yours were funny and nice but remember, Haikus are 5-7-5 syllabes    For other kinds of poetry (and free poetry as well) I suggest you  this other thread. Best wishes ^^

		as someone who is actually familiar with the Japanese culture in general and in Haikus specifically I must say I'm deeply saddened by this thread. there is a huge misconception here it seems of what Haikus really are. Haikus are not just about the 5-7-5 structure, they're about minimalistic language, minimalistic esthetics(beauty) Wabi-Sabi in Japanese, and much more, but I don't want to confuse you guys too much... 
 
also, even if you just go by the structure, without the "soul" of Haikus, than at least add the season element(not the actual season name but a clear yet minimalistic reference to a season), which is as crucial to the Haiku structure as the 5-7-5 format.
