What is a Haiku?

by Aradhana Khuntia aged 11

What am I doing?
I don’t know what haikus are!
Does it go like this?

First five syllables,
Then after that there’s seven,
Last there’s five again?

It is super long,
Super long and confusing
Way too confusing!

This doesn’t feel right!
It seems to be much too long!
What could have gone wrong?

Wait just one second,
I was right, it was too long!
It’s only three lines…
