i saw two turtle doves sitting in a tree
cuddled up together as close as close can be
then they started kissing there in front of me
very much in love that was plain to see

when they finished kissing into the sky they flew
very much in love into they sky so blue
i wont forget that day in my memory
and the little doves will always stay with me

Five quick syllables
Then you plug in seven more
Five will wrap it up

My first ever haiku...or is this a senryu?

~ Haiku ~
An unrhymed verse form of Japanese origin having in English three lines containing usually five, seven, and five syllables respectively
~
The word Haiku comes from the Japanese words hai (amusement) and ku (verse). It is a shortened version of the phrase haikai no ku, which translates to "light verse".

Don't waste time
studying me
instead study
yourself closely

what you would know
of me eventually
at the expense of yourself
is nothing but pure triviality
