Haiku poems are a type of poem from Japan. A haiku poem is usually made out of 3 lines only, but sometimes, it is made out of many stanzas of 3 lines. In every Haiku poem, the first line has 5 syllables, 7 syllables in the second line, and 5 in the third too. But if the poem is longer, the same pattern repeats in the next stanza. There may or may not be any rhyming of words in a haiku poem, most people use end rhymes in haiku poems, but some people don't. Below are some examples of haiku poems I got from the internet.
An example of a long haiku poem:
Powdered sugared pines
Red berries in furry caps
Landscapes transforming
Snow Angel canvas
Fragile lazer-cut crystals
Glorious quiet
Brightly shining fields
Soft gifts from Heaven on tongues
Earth's winter fur coat
An example of a short haiku poem:
Falling to the ground
I
watch a leaf settle down
In a bed of brown
This is basically what haiku poems are.
