Haiku for a beloved friend on her birthday
The fog of a dream:
Desolation yields a shrine,
Your steadfast friendship.
A haiku is a type of Japanese poem that always uses the same number of syllables in a three-line format:
- the first line is five syllables
- the second line is seven syllables
- the third line is five syllables
Unlike many other poems, haikus usually don’t rhyme.
Often, a haiku focuses on a single moment in time and, in many cases, juxtaposes two images.
