Hi!

I was going to search for a poem about swimming pools....and then I thought,
I'll write a swimming pool haiku.

And I remembered how much fun we all have when we ALL write haikus.

So let's do that.



Haiku
(HI-coo)

Haiku is a poetic form and a type of poetry from the Japanese culture. Haiku combines form, content, and language in a meaningful, yet compact form. The most common form for Haiku is three short lines. No need to rhyme.

Won't you join the fun

Isn't that easy? And it really is delicious.
