A traditional Japanese Haiku is a seventeen-syllable poem of three lines, five syllables/ seven syllables/ five syllables. It usually evokes nature in some way, for example the changing seasons. The art of haiku began in 9th-12th century Japan in the form of a Tanka, which was a progressive poem. The first person would write the beginning with a 5/7/5 structure; the next would add to it with a 7/7 structure. You can read more at:
