If there was ever a time to consider writing a Haiku poem - this must surely be it. Allow yourself to explore this creative form of expression that captures a moment or an experience in a concise, succinct way.  No poetry writing experience necessary. Anonymous entries accepted. Our hope is to create a snapshot of this unique time we find ourselves in through the Haiku Project. A collage of words/voices from the IC community. So, whether you find inspiration while walking on a nature trail, while turning your computer off, or while reading your breakfast cereal box...we'd love to hear from you. 

Haiku is a traditional Japanese form of poetry: a 17 syllable poem written in three lines. First line = 5 syllables, second line = 7 and third line = 5.  (The 5-7-5 style is one variation that is commonly used in English Haiku).
