Monday April 17.
National Haiku Poetry Day.
Sometimes less really is more. And other times a lot less is a lot more. Which is why today, this Monday April 17, we are joining in the celebrations for National Haiku Poetry Day, as devised and implemented by The Haiku Foundation back in 2012. Because things don't get a lot more more for a lot less less than the old art of Haiku, in which a frog leaping in a pond, the profundity of a drop of few, the light of a candle, a blooming poppy, a howling wind, or the taste of rain can be distilled and expressed with such compelling and elusive intrigue—and such economy of words. These are works which require very little time at all in the act of reading, but sit and linger and echo for a long time thereafter. They resonate, in the truest sense of the word. Tumblr being Tumblr, the writing community here is home to more than a few talented Haiku poets, as you can see for yourself over at #haiku poetry.
And Tumblr being Tumblr, of course, this community is home to one particular talent notable in the art of Haiku: @the-haiku-bot, a bot which, in their own words: "Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up." This is a bot that can prise moments of poetry from even the most innocuous post, and, we would contend, makes the perfect way to celebrate #haiku poetry and today's national commemoration. Trans sex? 17 syllables? Your aunt? Long rants? The Turing test? There is nothing—nothing—this mysterious little bot cannot accomplish.

As soon as we met,
I knew you were a really
Sugoiful guy.
Hitoshi-san, nya,
I want to tell you something
That's been on my mind.
Even if it's strange
Read each line's first letter to
Understand my heart.
Raku chan blushed as she read over her love haiku to Hitoshi-san. (Translator note: A haiku is a Japanese poem of seventeen syllables, in three lines of five, seven, and five, traditionally evoking images of the natural world.)
She hoped that Hitoshi san would understand the poem and know what she meant.
Suddenly 1 of Raku chans classmates showed up!
"RAKU CHAN wut r u doing, how are we supposed to sell kawaii pantsu underwear chans if ur just loitering around wasting time?! Hurry up and get to work!" said the classmate.
"N-nya I'm going I'm going ok?" Raku chan said. She sighed and put away her love letter and went outside to work at the kawaii pantsu chan stall.
"Nya nya nya~ Kawaii pantsu chans~ Nya nya desu~ Sugoi pantsu chans~" Rakue-chan singed the TV jingle 4 Kawaii underwear chan store ^o^.
A bunch of people showed up listening to Raku-chan's singing which was as lovely as an pure angle's singing. When she was done singing the crowd all cheered and everyone bought a bunch of kawaii pantsus that was how good Raku-chan's singng was.
"Wow we're all sold out of kawaii underwears!" said one of the students.
"Raku-chan, ur incedible!" sed another one.
"Good work Raku-chan" said Vet-sama who was walking around the Festival to look at all the stalls.
"A-Arigato gazaimasu minna sans, Vet-sama! It was nohting!" Raku-chan said bashfully and she bowed like in anime.
"Well, since we were so sucessfull, we should all go have a break now. Let's enjoy the Festival minna san!" said a classmate.
"Ok!!!" said Raku-chan and all the others and they went to look around da Festival.

Meanwhile Koneko-chan was still at the mochi ice cream stall. The mochi ice cream stall was set up kind of like a maid cafe, where there were tables people could sit and order food from maids.
"Ohayo master-kun, what would you like 2 order!" said one of the kawaii maids.
"Ehehehehe I wanna kawaii parfait chan eheheh" said a pervy guy with a nosebleed at the seggsy meidos all around him.
"Coming right up!" said the maid and she brought the order to the kitchen where Koneko-chan was working.
Koneko chan was making the sugoi desserts and stuff for the maid cafe. She put in mochi ice cream and pocky chans and whiped cream and choclat syrup and other stuff they put on parfaits.
She finished making da parfait and another maid brought it out.
Then suddenly a new customer came in! It was…………………………………………………………………………….
DOLCE-CHAN!!!!!!!
Dolce-chan was Koneko-chan's sister!
"Hi Dolce-chan! said Koneko chan." said Koneko chan
"Hi Koneko-chan" Dolcechan said back. "Pretty kimochi School Festival u have here, right?"
