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, pay no heed to our divagations...
As for the wine, I was only suggesting white because it's summer and I can't stand cold red...

We've switched topic - It's now about Freedom. As for switching topic again, it will be after the judging takes place. As for the beer and wine - it is part of the process of worshipping FallenSky and I.

Power got to Avorne's head; I strongly suggest you take what he says with a grain of salt...Heck, take it with a shitload of salt...Now now, no more spamming on my part. I'll be waiting patiently for this round to be over and judge it Asap.
Good luck everyone!

I too shall abstain from further spamming and deviation from the topic - I might as well make an entry though:

Quality Post

*The Police tribute*

Free from the shackles
Of the bounding gravity;
Walking on the moon

That's what's fun when you're the judge; you don't have to worry about the quality of your Haikus ^^.

"Why so serious?"

I get bored sometimes and on topic - I'm impressed with the quality of the Haiku's so far - keep up the good work guys.

Yes - luckily the only things you have to do if you worship us is have a beer every so often and enter the Haiku contest each week.

Ok - worship change:
Have an occasional drink to celebrate FallenSky and I being pure evi- Awesome.

stay cool and never forget that this contest's purpose is to have fun and develop our common interest in poetry...Although I would go for white wine rather than a beer ^^.

Haha you guys are funny, and guess what, I brought the beer, and the white wine!!
