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 !!!.

Carpe Diem Summer Retreat 2016 (27) deep silence
Dear friends,
A new haiku for the Summer Retreat of Carpe Diem:
spring breeze cherry blossoms dance in the moonlight deep silence
The silent dance of cherry blossoms by moonlight is so enchanting.
