Do you Haiku?


What is Haiku?


Haiku is one of the most important form of traditional Japanese poetry. Haiku is, today, a 17-syllable verse form consisting of three metrical units of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. Since early days, there has been confusion between the three related terms Haiku, Hokku and Haikai. The term hokku literally means "starting verse", and was the first starting link of a much longer chain of verses known as haika.
Because the hokku set the tone for the rest of the poetic chain, it enjoyed a privileged position in haikai poetry, and it was not uncommon for a poet to compose ahokku by itself without following up with the rest of the chain

Pan Historia is sponsoring a contest for members to create their own Haiku! Enter as many times as you like Between February 1st, 2006 and February 28th, 2006. Winners will be announced in March. Your theme: Pan Historia and the Panniversary, of course!


Winners will receive the Poet Laurete Badge.
