Haiku/Senryu Contest --- for 'Visions through Haiku' Members only. (Application link inside)








Welcome to the Haiku/Senryu Contest for Visions through Haiku.

~ For this contest, write a Haiku or Senryu.
~ No Chains.


~ The theme is : Love and Nature
~ Each Haiku/Senryu must be in 5-7-5 syllable count.

~ Be unique. Do not write the usual cliche.

~ Show vivid imagery.

~ You have a vast scope.

~ Explore your muse.




For those who wish to be a part of this group, the following is the link to the application page:

To stay away from any issues on syllable count, all of you should have the perfect 5-7-5 syllable count through this syllable counter:

http://www.wordscount.info/hw/syllable.jsp

This is because some people say that the pronunciations are different in their country and hence the syllable count.
So you can confirm the syllable count in this syllable counter after you have written.


NOTE: This being an anonymous contest, please mention your username in the Author's Notes so that I can make sure that you are a member.



Create some wonderful images.

Have fun!
