HAIKU

Fashioning a heart?
Better use elastic,
It will not scar, promise.

      I agree! Haikus are lovely its like compressed magic! hehehe well this is the second haiku I have ever written i’m not a pro!!! But from the research I did there are two forms of haikus…the traditional 3 lines with 5 syllable, 7 syllable, 5 syllable and the Free form where the syllable count is longer or shorter to suit the writer’s fancy.

      As I count the syllables in this one I realize it is 5,6,7! Clearly this is not a traditional haiku ;/
