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

Yeah, it should be to.

The sun moves backwards
Letting the trees take a break
The pines choose not to?

The leave pile slants up.
As I jump, my feet tingle.

This is my Autumn Haiku.

So when does judging occur? It is now Tuesday...

Is this a weekly contest?
If so, which days is judging supposed to occur? Sunday? Or Monday?

I'm allright a poetry, but I'm horrible at Hikus. I think they are kind of stupid anyway, so that doesn't bother me much...

I really don't think it was such a good idea to extend the deadline. Now everyone is forgetting about it.
