A haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry consisting of three lines. It has a specific structure: the first line contains 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, and the third line returns to 5 syllables.
Haikus often focus on nature, seasons, or fleeting moments, capturing a concise and vivid image or emotion. They aim to evoke a sense of tranquility and contemplation.
While traditionally Japanese, haikus are also written in various languages worldwide and are appreciated for their simplicity and ability to convey profound insights in a minimalistic manner.
