A traditional haiku consists of three lines with a 5-7-5 syllable pattern. They typically focus on nature or the seasons, use simple language, and evoke a clear image or emotion. Haikus often include a juxtaposition or contrast between two ideas.

The haiku needs to have 17 morae (5 in the first and last lines, 7 in the second line). It should also reference a season, have a cutting word, and contrast two images or ideas.
