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

Aren't haiku supposed to not be rhymed? :P Just sayin'.

I was thinking the same thing, but I guess this round is the exception that proves the rule, even if it dosen't.

Not necessarily rules , but yes, haiku poetry doesn't usually have rhymes. For this, it's an exception.

Have you guys no shame?
These haikus are all the same
And frankly, they're lame.

To Ernie:

Get with the times and
Lighten up man; Chew some dip
Or go smoke some dope.

Word to your mother. Mav out.

That don't even rhyme!
Get on out, or hear me shout,
"YOU get with the times!"

My first rap battle and my first haiku.
Cut me some slack, or I'll cut you! xD
