Writing a Haiku

Writing a haiku
Is quite troublesome to do - 
Must count syllables.

No need to count syllables--just capture the moment as simplistically as you can. Imagery is important. Too many get caught up in the mechanics that they forget to give the reader an experience. This poem gives people something to things about. Best wishes with your writing. Karen
