@MarjoleinRotsteeg @dailyhaikuprompt @poetry @haiku Nice poem, but in my opinion no haiku, as a haiku consists of 5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second line and 5 in the last line.

Maybe the article by @SteveMcCarty on haiku is of interest to you. See link below.

Don't forget, even Basho didn't confine himself to the 5-7-5 syllable count and distribution.

Yes, thank you, there seems to be a perennial need for my article on what makes real haiku in languages other than Japanese: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/323187189_Internationalizing_the_Essence_of_Haiku_Poetry

However, far more important than the number of syllables is how deep meaning is conveyed. While changes in nature can serendipitously reflect changes in oneself, does the heavy lifting in .
