Haiku are traditional Japanese three-line poems that conform to a standard pattern. In the original Japanese, the first line had five syllables, the second seven, and the third: five again. The beauty lies in the simplicity and natural focus... "Our life is finite | Its moments fleeting and true | Live mindful of now." - David Hulon Hood | Simply listening to and contemplating haiku can open and free the mind.
