so haiku is not poetry?
Songs of solomon and david not poetic? Think we have the word rhymes and poems mixed up. In rhymes the cadence must match preceding lines in a pattern, In poetry the cadence must match the cadence. thanx, bill

Haiku has very, very strict rhythm
If it's one sillable off, it's not haiku. I don't know about rhymes, they don't survibe translation well.
DOn't know about David and Solomon. I am trying to learn Hebrew alphaet at the moment (not for reasons of poetry :) ), will report when I can read (sound) them in the original.

sheesh only a Russian :-)
I am not planning on living in Israel anytime soon so am putting off learning hebrew. Can pick it out of a crowd enough to embarrass myself for asking Palestinians if they are Israelis :-) Most of the sounds are hork a lugey(an expression by certain comedians) and mor constanents than vowels. As a Russian who has learned english at your level, hebrew should be a snap. thanx, bill

Haiku is 5-7-5. That's something else. ;)
When fresh snow does fall A girlfriend with a smile cannot be trusted
Damnit, now I gotta go find the original.
Then there's Basho:
Writing crap about Freshly falling snow does not make good poetry
After 9/11, Bush made two statements: 1. "Terrorists hate America because America is a land of freedom and opportunity." 2. "We intend to attack the root causes of terrorism."
Sounds like everything is going according to plan.

LMAO!
Good one.
Box, 5-7-5 refers to the number of syllables, not words.

Windows haiku.
Chaos reigns within. Reflect, repent, and reboot. Order shall return. Windows NT crashed. I am the Blue Screen of Death. No one hears your screams.
