Life's rushing rivers,
Flow in hot and cold shivers,
Balancing slivers!

Note 2,
Haiku is a type of short form poetry originally from Japan. Traditional Japanese haiku consist of three phrases that contain a kireji, or "cutting word", 17 on in a 5, 7, 5 pattern, and a kigo, or seasonal reference. However, modern haiku vary widely on how closely they follow these traditional elements.(Wikipedia)
