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

Well, is your Santa Clause such a nice man now?


A bloody soaked shirt
Small armies terrorize them
The fat man in charge

@nichodemus: Beware, you might be feeding the trolls. They are hungry!

@Lee_Blade:
Haikus have a format of;

First line: 5 syllables
Second line: 7 syllables
Third line: 5 syllables

Example:
Here's a haiku about haikus;

One: Five syllables
Two: There's seven syllables
Three: Five syllables

Third has one extra.

Nice rhymes with cool ice
Naughty sometimes can be nice
Christmas ice,Christ rise

Innocent blood you have spilled,
To placate the crowd.
