    A happy scouser with
    golden feet begins a new
    day Oakwell awakens

    Haiku's have seventeen syllables, five on the first and last lines, seven on the middle line, you have an extra syllable on the first and last.

    That website doesn't seem to recognise the words scouser or Oakwell so just assumes they're 1 syllable rather than 2

    Odd coincidence that this should come up now because, only yesterday, I wrote an article about a 16th century Korean poet called Yi Hwang and his speciality was the sijo - very similar style. I'm sure you're all agog to see what one looks like, so here is Fragrant orchids in the valley, written in 1565:

    Fragrant orchids in the valley lend enchantment to the air;
    those puffy clouds over the mountain are also delightful.
    Amid pleasures such as these, I still long for my dear one.

    Shock headline: Bulletin board gets culture ;)
