A Haiku: consists of three lines; first line, five syllables; second line, seven syllables; third line, five syllables.
It cannot rhyme, although some famous guy once said "writing poetry without rhyming is like playing tennis without a net."
Entries: unlimited.
Winner: a secret prize; will be delivered before Dec. 25.
Deadline: all entries must be sent before Nov. 30
Judging: poems will be posted throughout the contest; comments can be influential in final
judgement. Final judgement is determined by Fruit Street Free Press officials.
Examples of a Haiku:
Steps swoosh fallen leaves
Flip-flops must be put away
Winter closing in
Cartoons never die
They live always with smiles
Someone draw me please
