Flower Time Poems

Lovely Floral Haiku:
~
Roses can be red
Violets are blue, grown for you
And I love you, too



Pretty Flowery Twaiku:
~
All flora is beautiful
And forget-me-nots
Lillies and lavenders, too



If you do not know what a Haiku or Twaiku are then I will tell you. Both are Japanese styles of poetry. This type of poem is generally associated with nature. A Twaiku is the reciprocal of a Haiku in mathematical terms. Here are the patterns:

Haiku:
(Line 1) 5 syllables
(Line 2) 7 syllables
(Line 3) 5 syllables

Twaiku:
(Line 1) 7 syllables
(Line 2) 5 syllables
(Line 3) 7 syllables
