Haiku is one of the most important forms of traditional japanese poetry. Literally means "starting verse", and was the first starting link of a much longer chain of verses known as haika. Because the haiku set the tone for the rest of the poetic chain, it enjoyed a privileged position in haiku poetry, and it was not uncommon for a poet to compose a haiku by itself without following up with the rest of the chain.

harvest recipe
spying a recipe over mothers shoulder - the harvest moon
while on thanksgiving holiday vacation in Montreal my wife looked over her mother's shoulder for a holiday recipe as the moon shone so large and bright behind them.
