Doesn't a haiku have to have a reference to a season in it?

...I believe #3 is the only one that actually follows a 5-7-5 syllable lay out. #1 5-7-6, #2 5-6-5, #4 6-7-6, #5 3-7-3, and #6 5-8-5. Assuming you loosen it up to short first line, long middle, same length as first third line you still lose #1.

Rules for Haiku in English are slighty different. Often they use just 14 syllabes. Or at least it's what I read in this book, a guide to haiku www.chipublib.org/search/details/cn/2047447/results/1/ It was to be written in Japanese instead? To be strict no one is written in the right method, considering either Japanese or English style of haikai.

I was always taught that, even in English, a haiku had to have a 5-7-5 syllabic count.

I was always taught that, even in English, a haiku had to have a 5-7-5 syllabic count. Jiyuritsu(自由律) stands unrestrained by the 5-7-5 rule. And this rule really makes sense only in japanese, since each kanji is a complete idea (with only a few hiragana and katakana being used to complete and tie the words). There are many "rules" in english, like the use of a cut point (usually a punctuation mark) that compares two ideas/images; the use of a season word; or the use of a total of three lines with up to 17 syllables distributed among them. I am by no means any authority on the subject but I'll use some quick examples from the wikipedia (mainly just to piss people who dislike wikipedia off, but also because I'm lazy) to better illustrate the point: Snow in my shoe Abandoned Sparrow's nest Jack Kerouac (collected in Book of Haikus, Penguin Books, 2003) Whitecaps on the bay: A broken signboard banging In the April wind. Richard Wright (collected in Haiku: This Other World, Arcade Publishing, 1998) downpour: my "I-Thou" T-shirt Raymond Roseliep (Rabbit in the Moon, Alembic Press, 1983) Just friends: he watches my gauze dress blowing on the line. Alexis Rotella (After an Affair, Merging Media, 1984) Little spider, will you outlive me? Cor van den Heuvel (Haiku Anthology, 34d ed. 1999) This is to say that people just do whatever they like, at least in english, then create rules for it later. There are even variant forms with less or more than three lines. So, since this is a friendly tournament, I think we should worry more about the idea itself than the form it takes. The intention here is to be, in my opinion, pleasing, short and catchy. Just my 2 koku about the subject.
