fun fact: this photo was the top hit on Unsplash when searching haiku. apparently this is what a haiku looks like, according to technology.
(honestly... i feel like it is actually a pretty good representation. nice one, technology.)
if you'd like another haiku experience, here's one from a while ago... a tetra-haiku:

I AM
This is not who I thought I would be. Before my family was captured and forced into slavery, I had aspirations of becoming a wealthy business owner or possibly a scholar and philosopher. Becoming a warrior was the furthest thing from my mind. Unfortunately, our Roman conquerors had other plans.

Cleverly done, Tony. Last line made me smile.
Three waterfalls that seem to follow the rules of Haiku. Perfect all around.
I really liked technology's representation of a Haiku. And I love your Haiku about a Haiku. It was spot on!
Haha! So good! I felt this one– so many words in my head, so few syllables left! 😂 your ending was the best! That’s 100% the perfect haiku pic– amazing for this piece…flow of water/words constricted by the edge of the photo, forced into a small picture. The other words/water not seen, flowing down river. Maybe I took that too far, but those were my thoughts 😂. Also, way better than some of the words I search 🤪
Omg, this is so funny, Tony. That author's note made me chuckle, as I have noticed that "haiku" brings up curious images. I guess Unsplash thinks all haiku include waterfalls and greenish rocks...🧐 BUT I love your haiku too; that last line is so clever.
Great haiku (made me think about all sorts of possibilities for the end). And I loved the perfect match in the picture, too.
Splendid one!
Great Job! I liked the cut off at the end, very nice flourish1
Great Haiku! Fantastic work!
