An updated How to Write Haiku in English. that has just a little more detail and for knowledge and perhaps craft. And how to do a Pingback.

The Guidelines:

1. 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,
   • For syllables for each word, and different definitions, you use the definition that works for you Haiku. You can also use SYNONYMS. Go to Thesaurus.com for synonym help.
2. 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.

3. If you like, copy the image in this post and place it within their post, just to show the Haiku is part of this challenge.
4. • • I am not saying you need or even should, but if you would like to do so then go ahead.

I’m having to set this one up a little early because I will probably be without power in a few hours, as in my Sunday early morning dark hours. Ice coming in, thus the inspiration for the words this week, although they can be used in so many ways.

Drop by on Wednesday for the Décima Poetry Challenge. Sometimes the two challenges have similar themes you can unite over the week.

It’s the week of Thanksgiving here in the United States. For some that doesn’t mean too much these days. For me it’s about being thankful for what I have; family, reasonable health I can live with, and a mind that can still put together a sentence every now and then in spite of the concussions I’ve had and memory loss. My father passed away in June. I’m living with my mother as her care giver (Talk about an experience and life adjustment there), but when all is said and done, there are still things to give thanks for.
