Haiku

Haiku is a type of poetry from the Japanese culture that combines, form, content and language in a important and solid way. Haiku are frequently stated to have 17 syllables or sequence of speech sounds differently from the “moras” that determines syllable weight.
This kind of poetry don´t consist in the rhyme, but it must mostly paint I the minds of the readers a new meaning image in just three lines of poetry.
Old pond . . .
A frog leaps in
Water’s sound

By Bashō's "old pond"
Haiku poems go forward than original poems, because it tries to show the poetry and their significance throw a new and simple way to get to people. It shows that poetry doesn’t need to rhyme or to have a lot of words and lines, but show the real meaning throw a few words.

My Haiku…

1. Memories
Flying off today
Memories of yesterday
You´ll be back tomorrow.
2. Sleep Now
Dreams are only ours
A perfect world waits for us
I want to sleep now.
