You really have the right idea, but the Haiku should not be so stressed. Unlike a poem, this is a short matter that reflects this moment, or a singular memory. Relax and write. You will surprise yourself!
Because most Japanese words are polysyllabic, with very short sounds (like the syllables in the three-syllable english word "radio", but unlike the one-syllable words "thought" or "stressed"), the seventeen sounds of a Japanese haiku carry less information than would seventeen syllables. Consequently, writing seventeen syllables in English typically produces a poem that is significantly "longer" than a traditional Japanese haiku. 5-7-5 here is something I will just make up: I found beauty here In a place that I forgot I remember now Doitashimashi te! Mata ne, Steve |

Mata ne, Steve Thanks Takineko, but these are the first and only ones i've written, and i don't consider myself a poet, i like to write stories for young adults, children, and music. Bye the way didn't that famous Japanese Haiku artist write that little ditty? (the woman who is world renown) |

Mata ne, Steve I don't believe he's striving for traditional haiku. I believe he's making a first effort. I didn't find his writing forced or stressed. Actually I found it to be quite relaxed as he's apparently quite comfortable with what he wrote and it was reflected in his words... |

Kobayashi Issa? I don't think so. Her simple words are much more structured and provoking. I enjoyed your writings. I hope to see more of yours in the future! :)

MsWizard, please do not misunderstand, I liked what 10001110123(Did I remember it correctly?) wrote. I agree with you. Any poem anyone writes is special because it reflects an ability and a need to create. I thought my post to 10001110123 would be sent private, I was not trying to 'pee in his Cherrios'. :)
