Graceful dancing fires
Embers scattered about
Like prowling fireflies
What is the difference between traditional haiku and freestyle haiku
Traditional haiku must follow a pattern, 5-7-5 (five syllables in the first line, seven in the second line and five in the last line with a total of 17 syllables). In freestyle, there is no set amount of syllables. The idea there is to catch the spirit rather than the form of the original Japanese art form.

I appreciate your distinction between the traditional haiku and the freestyle haiku. Translations have shown that the beauty of a haiku exists in more than syllable count (a restriction more suited to the nuances of Japanese language).
My favorite line is "like prowling fireflies." It reads well and makes for a great simile about the fires. Thanks for the post and I look forward to more.
