Our new event, 'Enjoy Haiku' stated on October 27th. Haiku is a style of Japanese poems which comprises just 17 syllables. The 17 syllables are actually divided into 3 lines; 5 syllables -7 syllables - 5 syllabes. Japanese people often call haiku go-shichi-go which means 5-7-5. Haiku has to have one seasonal word in either of the lines.
