 Hi-ku the fom at http://ichthys-myhaiku.blogspot.com haiku in English on wiki https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku_in_English

the genius of hi-ku with an economy of words to paint a multi-tiered painting, without "telling all". to show rather than tell conforming to the key to true imagist poetry,a subtle difference ,to avoid ,like 'as'&'to' and the use of past tense verbs thus without verbs,adverbs,adjectives verse freed from syllabic constraint within its triplicity of format,and inherently unique zen cultural artform, yet still with a caesura and surprise. NOTE:haiku' is the ' form original in Japanese' and the translations of the original Japanese verse form into the English language
