Haiku

--> Japanese small poem;
first proofs for Haikus were already found in the 13th century.
> structure : - 5-7-7 syllables per line or - 5-7-5 syllables per line

Two types of Haiku :
--> Mondo: Its written by two people ( asking question and answering )
--> Sedoka: Its written by a single author

put examples for Haikus under comments!
