Dragonlance Haikus

By the Staff

hai·ku (hk)
n. pl. haiku, also hai·kus

1. A Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.
2. A poem written in this form.

Surprisingly, we here at Dragonlance Underground have decided to follow some rules! We followed the definition above and produced several haikus of surprising quality. We found ourselves with quite a few of these 'kus, since several took the opportunity to avoid other more important projects, and here they are, in non-rhyming verse.
