...................................and in most of Dutch Autumns Indian Summer will be coming, surely................................... What I wanna say is: Haiku must be with 5-7-5 syllables, otherwise it is no haiku. For example: I have taken your Autumn Subject: Golden leaves rustling, shorter days, cold nights' starting, autumn at our doors. Thank you for sharing your loveliest Autumn poem, Katinka. I have truly enjoyed.10+++++
Yes Sylvia you would be right if it was in Japanese, but in English you don't have to keep to the 5-7-5 rule. And because I don't write in Japanese.... I can keep a free-form Haiku if I like to. Just look it up if you don't believe me.
IF I have something to tell, I oftentimes write a message, but you don't allow readers send messages to you, so that's why I write my words here, I am so sorry. Best regards, Sylvia Frances Chan.
Thank you for your comments Sylvia. I don't know about that message thing, I don't think I have it I'm not sure.
