Dai
Death Scythe
Here are the rules:
Examples:
Changing face of March
Chill of winter slips away
Now file tax return
Sweet summer maiden
Your ripe melons on the beach
My bat will smash them
- Syllable structure must be 5-7-5
- Must include a seasonal theme (otherwise it would be a senryu, not haiku)
- Must start romantic, but end unromantic
