This is a Haiku

by Isabelle Sweeney aged 11

This is a haiku
Really very simple, see?
But it just can’t be

Five syllables first
Seven in the middle line
Five syllables last

No that can’t be it
Is it made of a soft cheese?
No, it must be words

Oh I’ve gotten it
How could I have not noticed
It broke a big rule

A haiku can only have three lines.
