Modern English Haiku or ME Haiku is a new form of haiku that follows the 5 / 7 / 5 / 2 pattern of syllables with one repetition: 5 / 7 / 5 / 2 and 5 / 7 / 5 / 2. Architect by me, ArchDuke Kenneth.

The traditional Japanese haiku's "on" or "beats" as known in the English verse, has a 5 / 7 / 5 pattern of syllables and no repeat.

Our Children

 

We need to protect

Our innocent from harms way

To be good grown ups

Children

 

Are vulnerable

Shape by their environment

Whether good or bad

You care
