A haiku is a traditional Japanese poetic form built on a strict structure of 17 syllables split into three phrases:
Line 1: 5 syllables
Line 2: 7 syllables
Line 3: 5 syllables
Rooted in Zen philosophy, classical haikus focus on a fleeting moment in nature, a specific season (called a kigo), and the quiet contrast between permanence and change. Modern haikus can explore any theme, but they always rely on vivid imagery and minimalism—painting a complete picture with just a few words instead of explaining an emotion.
