Pluto is the rose
by any other name; a god
become second string
Okay, so you get my bad off-the-cuff poem for the day. :)
And yes, the meter is slightly off. Oh well, what do ya expect for about ten seconds of thought?
Does meter even matter for haiku?
Yep, for 3-line haiku, 5-7-5. There's more than one version, though. I don't know the rules. I stick to free verse so I conveniently forgot all the structures for sonnets, haiku, and the zillion other styles of poetry once I got through that college course. I bet it's on the web somewhere, though! ;)
Oh the syllable count, right. Wasn't sure if that counted as meter.
I'm not much of a poet, if you can't tell.
