A haiku in English is an English-language poem written in the Japanese poetry style known as haiku, which correlates the two languages. The degree to which haiku in English resemble classic Japanese haiku varies, but many of these poems draw on short, concise wording and a reference to the seasons.  Usually, haiku in English follows a three-line format with 17 syllables arranged in a 5–7–5 pattern.

My haiku will not necessarily be referencing seasons. It will also include diverse topics.
