My car is lovely
On cloudy days it looks black
Total ecstasy

Little fur critters
with beady eyes, scary teeth
creepy, squeaky voice


Sorry, your sig critters give me the creepies!

In Japan these poems are valued for:
Their lightness
Their simplicity
Their openness
Their depth
People have tried to translate the Haiku into an English form:
Using no more than 17 syllables.
Arranging these often in lines of 5-7-5 syllables
Avoiding similes and metaphors
Retaining Japanese values
