Excellent Spring Haiku 4/4/6 One Thousand Cranes : Gusty Bay Wind by Gypsy Blue Rose for rules, please check my author notes

gusty bay wind hums through sand reeds — tree's standing ovation   Author Notes Aeolian ( ee-oh-lee-uhn wind is the sound produced by wind when it encounters an obstacle. Standing Ovation (oh-vey-shuhn) = an enthusiastic reception marked by loud applause. HAIKU is an unrhymed Japanese poem that uses imagistic language to convey the essence of a human experience in nature. It uses a juxtaposition of two concrete images in a way that prompts the reader to make an insightful connection between the two. It alludes to a season of the year. The best haiku avoid the poet's ego and views. FORM Japanese haiku is written in 17 syllables and three lines (5/7/5), in English is 17 syllables OR LESS in any combination (3/5/3 - 2/7/6 - 5/6/5 - etc). AVOID punctuation, alliteration, metaphor, personification, and capital letters (proper names are okay). Haiku and other Japanese poetry don't need titles but in fanstory we have to have one. It can be anything that relates to the haiku. To pause before the satori you can use a dash, sometimes a comma is okay, but we keep punctuation to a minimum.
