there sleeps sweet blossoms spring nods approval to smile during sunlit days

Monoku

A Monoku is a type of poem which is made up of a single horizontal line. Traditionally considered as a haiku writing, it is currently accepted as a variant of the haiku form of poetry. Monoku emerged as an independent style of poetry in the 1970s.

A haiku in a single horizontal line.

Unlike the Haiku which is made up of three outlines with a total of seventeen syllables, Monoku features a single line consisting of seventeen syllables or even fewer.

It contains a pause brought about by speech rhythm with slight or no punctuation. The first letter should not be capitalized – but instead written in lower case.

  6. Some days it smells more like spring… not quite petrichor – but the fields getting ready to accept seed on nearby farms – Like that fun T-shirt… compost happens! And compost with cow dung has a unique “eau de cologne” 😉
