Dear My Best Friends,

If you’re new to my blog CreativitytotheMAX here’s a little bit of history to my career as a PoetDogeate and an explanation from My Best Friend Leo at Haiku Heights http://haiku-heights.blogspot.com who has a “LinkyLink Haiku Challenge” every Saturday for all you who want to be a poet like me. (He doesn’t call it “Linky Link” but I embellished a bit since it is reminiscent of how I sign off)

• Some of my readers, and new writers at Haiku Heights http://haiku-heights.blogspot.com had asked me how to write a proper Haiku.
• Haiku is Japanese poetry form that has three meaningful lines which are complete and reflecting nature. (Hey Leo, I’m as natural as they get, no clothes, no guile, no prejudice)
• Haiku have syllabic limitations as well. A traditional one has eleven or seventeen syllables, in a strict 3-5-3 or 5-7-5 format.
• This week’s prompt is MYSTERY!!!!  http://haiku-heights.blogspot.com
