Haiku is an ancient form of Japanese poetry and is considered the shortest poetry form in the world. Haiku are typically written in just three lines of verse (with a total of seventeen syllables) in 5-7-5 pattern. Haiku often references seasons and nature. For additional information about Haiku, you can learn more by going to the following link: https://haiku-poetry.org/what-is-haiku.html

Instead of using the standard 5-7-5 Haiku format, this particular contest encourages contemporary structures which deviate from the normal pattern.

hibernating blossoms

awaken to Spring

silent flutters

delicately dancing

—a butterfly
