Haiku is a three-line unrhymed verse with the first line containing five syllables, the second line containing seven syllables and the last line containing five syllables. Sometimes the verse has a seasonal theme. Haiku is an old literary, poetic form. Motorcyclists seem to like motorcycle haiku poems. That is evident as you read the 17-syllable haiku poems contained in this book. You will be amazed to find out that the feelings of motorcycle riders can be so succinctly expressed in just three short lines. Here's an example: Fresh wind in my face On an early morning ride Biking therapy Each haiku poem has been titled and then paired up either with a motorcycle picture or a motorcycle tattoo. Each bike or tattoo picture is described, and then Walter offers his own thoughts to link together the poem and the bike or tattoo picture. Some safety or riding tips and philosophy may also be included in the narrative. If you've never read haiku before, you're in for a treat. Sit back and enjoy this book of Motorcycle Haiku Poetry.

The wind and I play tug-of-war with my new kite. The wind is winning. When you’re a guy, nature is one big playground—no matter what the season. There are puddles to splash in the spring, pine trees to climb in the summer, maple seeds to catch in the fall, and icicles to swordfight with in the winter. Nature also has a way of making a guy appreciate important stuff—like how many rocks it takes to dam up a stream, or how much snow equals a day off from school. So what kind of poetry best captures these special moments, at a length that lets guys get right back to tree-climbing and kite-flying? Why, guyku, of course!
