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

You can always remake another! Just remember to tell the judge that this is your official entry so he was skim past your original. Or you can request that I or another moderator remove it once your second is created so there wouldn't be any initial confusion.

Then i saw her face

Waters blue a sky,
Animals go to and fro,
Forever the ponds.

This is the Haiku Contest, where a specific theme must be followed. It is currently past the deadline for this round. If you want to post any haiku, go to Haiku Land instead.
