An unconventional and unusual two part haiku exploring how a haiku is born and how it dies.

The Birth Of A Haiku

Written in splendour
the pen of a poet sets
a haiku out loose.

The Death Of A Haiku

Not loved much because
it’s made without any flair
the haiku is lost

You are keeping them alive just by posting. I was only introduced to that style of poetry just this past year.
