"Haiku" is a traditional form of Japanese poetry. Haiku poems consist of 3 lines. The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables. The lines rarely rhyme.
The subtle difference between Haiku & Senryu.
In the haiku, "In shadows we roamed" sets the scene of a relationship that once existed, where the lovers were intertwined in each other's lives, sharing moments both bright and dark. "Echoes of love now faded" signifies that the intensity and passion of their love have diminished over time, leaving behind only faint remnants of what once was. Finally, "Lost souls find solace" suggests that despite the loss and heartache, there is still hope for healing and finding peace in the aftermath of lost love. It speaks to the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility of moving forward despite the pain.
senryu (5-7-5) not half haiku
In tribute to Socrates........".thanks for enlightening me to this sub-form of Haiku-like style "
ok I'm in too, gotta try this..
Lets try Tanka, even with a bit of rhyme
Just thoughts
Experimenting a little more with Haiku (nature) versus Senryu (feelings) .....5-7-5 format. Using a very structured format when writing poetry often helps to create such creativity and emphasis on words denoting feelings......amazing how descriptive language becomes....like music almost following conventions.
It seems senryu is taking over here temporarily. I thought I'd add a lighthearted attempt.
Once free,now lost.
Joining the crowd, trying Senryu

A Haiku poem: A Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons. In nature there is no good or evil. It's non dualistic. Inspired by Joseph Campbell.
