This blog is about haiku. A classical haiku counts 5-7-5 syllables. Chèvrefeuille (the pseudonym of Kristjaan Panneman, a Dutch haiku poet) however writes his haiku in the Kanshicho-style. In the Kanshicho-style the classical syllable count isn't used. Matsuo Basho (1644-1694), a haiku poet, wrote his haiku in Kanshicho-style for several years, but he returned to the classical way of haiku writing. !!! Anonymous comments will be seen as SPAM !!!.

New Haiku (11.17.2011)
A few new haiku which I love to share with my visitors.
in the twilight mist creeps low over the field - stars twinkle
the sound of church bells moves towards my house through the Spring haze
a long day's walk through the mist of autumn - finally the moon
