Jeez! That was some Pine tree you wrote about! Not sure I would call it Haiku, though! Certainly not traditional haiku, but haiku comes in many different shapes and sizes and some even do rhyme but this, I think is more Senryu. For more info on haiku, check out the poetry defined section at this link:
Haiku
Haiku or Senryu - it is still an awesome write, no matter what you call it!

Looking for Jingle bells
silver and gold
lost Christmas box

Marbles in a can
best I can do
you found the bells?!

I've never done one of these before so I have no idea of what I just did, or didn't do, lol. My inspiration was mainly picking something that was easiest to try this with. Holding my breath.....smile.

well AMACHRISTIAN - haiku come in many different flavors - but mostly the structure is focused on the syllable-count. (5-7-5 per stanza/line is usually the norm) More info found at the following link: Haiku

hehe - but I like your haiku - I don't know if it can fall into the category of "traditional" haiku - but the content is nice - original piece - now wonder who else has found the bells

Thanx for the share,

JAcquii.

MsJc.
Thank you very much for the information. I was never quite sure how people did these and still not sure if I'm going to really get it or not but I'll go read more about it and see what I can come up with afterward.
Thanks again for all your help.

Love those jingle bells
There is a string on my door
Go out and come in

Where is company
I want to hear the bells ring
I'll ring them myself


I'm wondering, is there also a style for the writing itself once the syllables are correct? Many I've read seem to leave just enough thought to cause one to read between the lines instead of writing a complete thought. Not sure if I did this exactly right although I think I got the syllables right this time.
Thanks in advance for any further information you can give. I did click and read the link you gave me.

Hi Sheri!
This was a cute little "Jingle"! Not traditional haiku, more senryu. I think I will just call it a very enjoyable read! If you are looking for more info on haiku - check out this link to my poem "Canada".

I have added a bit more info about the form. Hope it helps!
