Haiku
Haiku originate from Japan. They are small and subtle, precise and concentrated. Each Haiku is just three lines, grouped into 5, 7, and 5 syllables. Normally their themes have a pastoral hue.
Senryu
The Senryu has the same structure a Haiku. But the subject matter is different. They tend to be about people and their foibles. Unlike the Haiku, the Senryu is allowed to be funny.

Slender moon whose spine
Reclines in dark September
As a dotage god.
Winter
Winter speaks of change
Scars and creases latent lain
To haunt the summer.
Fat Men grow ugly
On the sausage and the pie,
Steak and kidney grief.
