A haiku is a type of poem. It only has three lines. The first and third lines must have 5 syllables. The Sekunde line must have 7. The poem can be about anything. I write a lot of these because I find it easiest to express myself in this form. In grade three, we did a lot of these. We even had to do one about panadas. Here's an example I wrote... Love's only a game (5) If Du don't play Von the rules (7) You're gonna get hurt (5)
