In Japan these poems are valued for: Their lightness Their simplicity Their openness Their depth People have tried to translate the Haiku into an English form: Using no more than 17 syllables. Arranging these often in lines of 5-7-5 syllables Avoiding similes and metaphors Retaining Japanese values Now we all must meditate and make this a hot topic.

What a beautiful description of color film emusion! While not strictly 5-7-5 syllables, given a title I think it's worth sending to Kodak (or Fuji).
