How to Write Haiku in English. And how to do a Pingback.
The Guidelines:
- Take the two words and write a Haiku. I use Haiku in English (the link shows you how) as my style, which is 5 syllables for the first line, 7 for the second, and 5 for the third, but you can use what you like.
- The link above has links on how to write Haibun and Tanka. You can also do the 3/5/3 form if you like instead of the 5/7/5 that I usually use. Write, share, and have fun. For syllable help,

- Copy the link of your finished haiku URL and paste in a comment below so we can all go and visit your Haiku.
- You can do a pingback. What’s a pingback? Place the URL from the address bar up top from this post as a link within your post. Your inclusion of the link encourages others to try the challenge, be creative, and join a community to find friends and more followers (hopefully). I honestly gain nothing with more people visiting the post. I don’t have ads running that generates revenue by your visit or by clicks on whatever WordPress has put up.

- I am not saying you need or even should, but if you would like to do so then go ahead.

COP 28-Earth Screams

COP 28-Earth Screams-The Shi Rensa
Earth screams out in pain,
“You sting me with platitudes,
the kiss of cowards.”
The kiss of cowards,
and if not fearful fraudsters,
then surely dreamers.
Then surely dreamers,
and if not that, then envoys
of selfish pursuits.
Of selfish pursuits
is the earth composed, and there
my friends, is the rub.
