Haiku (俳句) 

(plural haiku) is a short form of Japanese poetry in three phrases, typically characterized by three qualities:

1. The essence of haiku is "cutting" (kiru). This is often represented by the juxtaposition of two images or ideas and a kireji ("cutting word") between them, a kind of verbal punctuation mark which signals the moment of separation and colours the manner in which the juxtaposed elements are related.

2. Traditional haiku often consist of 17 on (also known as morae though often loosely translated as "syllables"), in three phrases of 5, 7, and 5 on, respectively.

3. A kigo (seasonal reference), usually drawn from a saijiki, an extensive but defined list of such terms.

Pink blooms in the sky,

Soft petals, red spiralling,

Wind of change, unspring. 

Let your mind wander with the wind of change, take a leap into Spring and watch the flowers blooming.

Let's celebrate the period of renewal in a poetic way.

We want to read your Haiku. Let them flow through your fingers... let them chase the early breeze of coming spring...
