Instructions

Step 1
You must have a central theme for your Haiku as you would any other poem. This can be about something from love to hate.
-
Step 2
Familiarize yourself with the structure. There are three lines in a Haiku. The first line has five syllables, the second line as seven, and the third line has five.
-
Step 3
Construct your theme carefully to fit into this structure. Begin with the first line and substitute words where you have to.
