~Prince Haiku.~

Prince Haiku.

Write a Prince related Haiku. The Haiku does not have 2 begin with Prince’s name, but it certainly may.

A Haiku follows a rule.
The Haiku has five lines.
1. A Single word.
2. A two word description of the first word.
3. Three adjectives that describe the first word.
4. A 4 word statement that supports the first word.
5. A Single word that reinforces the fourth rule.

An Example that I wrote as a teen is:

Rainbow
Colorful Highway
Gleaming, glowing, extending
A passage far beyond
Paradise.

A new example that I just wrote for this thread. Give it a try…It’s fun.

Prince
Voice Master
Clear, moving, resonating
A river of sound
Rejuvenating.
~T

A haiku is a 17 sylable poem in 3 lines, in the format 5, 7, 5; and should contain a seasonal reference. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku

I don't know what the form you're using is, I don't think I've encountered it before, did you invent it?

I quite like it, although I'm finding it much more difficult than 575 haiku. Here's my feeble attempt (I might need to have another go at it). wink

Honestly...I wondered the same thing based on teenage notes. I wouldn't be surprised if I married a Limerick with a Haiku...and now that I look at my own examples I see that they are nature related.

Maybe I did invent it...Call it a Taiku then... cool

You may have mixed it with something else. A limerick has a 2-2-1 rhyming pattern (ex five lines ending with cat, hat, stop, mop, fat).

I just did a little research and I apologize 4 making up my own rules...
However, what I found out was that the Japanese borrowed the form from the Chinese.
It is based on syllables...yet the Japanese did have a 5 line stanza occasionally that went 5-7-5-7-7.
There was controversial debate on the matter when the English began practicing the form...it was said to cause a lot of fights because more can be said in 17 syllables in the English language than in Japanese.
There are foreign adaptions and the rules are multifaceted yet narrow.

So I am sorry...Thanx 4 the correction...when it comes to the syllable rule for sonnets...I know those.

So I will do my homework and work on the 5-7-5...to make-up 4 this mistake. When the Teacher is ready...the student will appear...or so they say... cool

...haiku is about serenity and peace peace...haiku can b a way through which children can express their inner souls,a window through which 1 can see a child's world....

...3 line poems..1-5 syllables..2-7 syllables..3-5 syllables=17 syllables..

..1 depicts in them tiny images of incredible beauty,something glorious that might b missed if the writer had not taken the time 2 point it out...

...the persistence of a flower pushing its way through the cracks in the pavement 2 touch the sky!...
