A Haiku is a Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.

Well, that said, heres the rules:

1) The Haiku must be original (no plagarizing)!
2) It must fit the weeks theme
3) It must be submitted before the deadline
4) It must be submitted for the contest (no using works previously written)
5) One Submission per user
6) The Same User cannot win twice in a row (but there welcome to submit!)

Hopefully oneday the winner could get a merit...

The Deadline will always be a Wednsday, so the deadline for the first theme will be Wednsday, September 2. The theme is The Pond

Nice. That would be good if this was an art contest :/ Maybe if you write a haiku about it...

Coloured-haze seemed flat.
Brown up front, green in the back?
Death bends Nature's will.

A ghostly blockade

Hey. I'm back, with a concussion. Don't ask. Really. Message if you want to know, but that would be asking, wouldn't it? Humphf.

Thanks Shay, for keeping up with the thread. Thanks so much for doing it while I was gone.
