Our class recently entered a national poetry contest, sponsored by Cricket Magazine. We were challenged to think about time... time-keeping devices... time expressions... We chose Haiku to express our ideas, using the distinctive syllable pattern found in this poetry form from Japan. Enjoy our poetry!
