I can't write haiku
Because I'm not Japanese
Hey . . . wait a second
You must be swift as the coursing river,
With all the force of a great typhoon,
With all the strength of a raging fire,
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon.

Thank you.
You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

I really like this poem. The last line was my favorite. And (just guessing) it fits into dramatic poetry because it is so un-dramatic?

Let you won't;
You can't
So for every love She knows

Well I wish you the best of luck in figuring out how to write haiku. I know it is hard, when you have the round eyes, but keep trying at it, and some day you'll get it down. Maybe you could dye your hair and squint a lot, or learn some martial arts... eat with chopsticks... if you mispronounce your Rs for long enough you're sure to get it...
"Is", "is." "is" — the idiocy of the word haunts me. If it were abolished, human thought might begin to make sense. I don't know what anything "is"; I only know how it seems to me at this moment. -Robert Anton Wilson

hehehehe.. This Haiku made me laugh.. I have some advice for you though.

Do not do ...'s while haiku. It sends the wrong message to readers that the dot dot dot's may be different syllables, and that the last line may have too many.

Other then that, thanks for the hilarious read!!! I loved this poem!!!!!!!!!!!!
I came into this world wrinkled and ugly. And no matter how much I accumulate here, it's a short journey. I will go out of this world wrinkled and ugly. So I enjoy life.

Very good. Cleverly done. Like others i dont think it is a dramatic poem but i loved it.
One point though
Hey . . . wait a second


It is more difficult to tell the number of syllables in this line due to the ellipsis. I would remove it.

I would love to read more of your poems...

I honestly laughed out loud. XD
That was really great. I'm no expert on haiku, so I couldn't point out anything wrong with it.
Haiku is, to me, a rather difficult form of poetry, and I find it hard to write.
You, however, made it plain and clear that anyone can if they really want to (even if they aren't Japanese) XD

Keep writing!

Awesome piece, though it's technically senry, as it doesn't deal with season. I still loved it though. c:
