Japanese Style Poetry

Choka : a Japanese form of Tanka where it is written with
Alternating lines of 5,7 with two 7’s to end
Where as a Tanka would be the shortest example of 5,7,5,7,7
And the Choka 5,7,(5,7)x,7. The X can be any number of 5,7 units.


Silence in Darkness
No Coins in the Fountain
Disappearing Shadows
The Warrior
Colored Sunset
Skis on the Roof
With a Splash
In the Morrow


Haiku : A set(or sets) of three lines 5,7,5
