COMPOSING A TRADITIONAL JAPANESE HAIKU POEM
The 300-year old Haiku Poem has its own distinct discipline:- Each complete poem has only three lines, totalling 17 syllables.
- the first line must be five syllables- the second line must be seven syllables- the third line must be five syllables
When these rigid conditions are met, the result can be a very satisfying word picture .
Birds take wing on high, gliding over angry wavesback to their safe nests.

Lives in Sherwood Forest where he
Hears about the archery contest,
Sees the evil sheriff as an enemy,
Fears nothing,
Gives money to the poor,
Dreams about Maid Marian,
Loves the feel of a bow in his hands, and
Is happy to live in Sherwood Forest
