Writing a Haiku
Use three lines of 5, 7, 5 syllables
Determine your subject matter. Pay attention to small details around you. Notice things like birds or leaves outside, the way the air feels, or even a smell in the air, how you are feeling.
Many haiku are about very simple natural elements of day-to-day life.
Use short phrases that evoke strong images. Use symbolism (e.g. fallen leaves for autumn or daffodils for spring) to set a mood with very few words.
