It is April and National Poetry Writing Month. Anyone would like to write a Haiku on any theme? Haiku is a type of short form poetry originally from Japan. Traditional Japanese haiku consist of three phrases that contain a kireji, or "cutting word",17 on phonetic units similar to syllables in a 5, 7, 5 pattern.
Starting with mine:
One head so empty,
even my life seem absurd,
fearing the sunshine.




Tengo el alma en cuarentena y roto el cuerpo
Qué dolor, qué pena y qué tormento
El Kanka - Lo mal que estoy y lo poco que me quejo

    What a great idea @Kate_20. That’s a great poem you’re very talented. I would love to join in but unfortunately I am not great at writing so I think I’ll just enjoy reading other people instead

    It's not only for writing,
    also for reading.
