Traditionally, most of us don't come from cultures imersed in haiku. Which is exactly why it makes such a great implement for your creativity toolbox. The art of haiku uses form, content and language flowing around simple themes that tease the senses. What a great way to think outside the box and spur your muses into action!

rain nourished grown deeper
I shall need to mow
Even bad haiku can get the energy flowing. Try it yourself. (Please? I don't want to be the only one doing this!)
energy flowing
brightening my perspective
gold and pink sunset
summer on its way
mosquito biting ankles
wishing winter back
