What Haikus are about

A Haiku is a Japanese poem that is 3 lines long and doesn't Rhyme. The first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, the third line has 7 syllables.

The whole point of a Haiku is to communicate a lot with a little bit of words. Many times it deals with nature or things that have a lot of meaning to it.

Example:
Some say fate is all
If so, then why should I try?
Instead I will soar

One can "examine" Haikus and try to find a meaning. That is part of the fun of it.

I will write Haikus here for people to be able to view them
