[Pro Bowl VI: Week Two] Poetry

Create a Haiku poem

The Haiku is a simple Japanese poem that is three lines in length. Each line has a Separate syllable count. The standard count of 5-7-5 will be used for this competition. Details on how a Haiku is written are found in the following link:

Haiku

An Example of a famous Haiku is:

“A World of Dew” by Kobayashi Issa

A world of dew,
And within every dewdrop
A world of struggle.

All great Haiku poems follow a theme. As such your poem must follow one as well.

Prompt

The brotherhood is a violent and dangerous place. Friends become enemies, and enemies become friends. In keeping with the Japanese tradition of the Haiku however we see that even the mighty Samurai took time for peace and calm. As such you must follow their example and compose your haiku on the theme of Serenity. How you choose to define that is up to you.

Grading will be based on format, adherence to the theme and flow.

Note: Only submissions from participating units will be considered valid. Participating units are The Council, Naga Sadow, Odan-Urr, Plagueis, Scholae Palatinae, Taldryan, and Vizsla.
