[lojban-beginners] Re: APE: Lojban haiku
Felt as though I should try writing a few, probably messed something up seeing as this is pretty much my first Lojban ever, but whatever.

So, this week's APE is to write a haiku in Lojban.
Haiku are normally about nature, but all we're going to care about is that it's in three lines; a line of 5 syllables, a line of 7 syllables, and a final line of 5 syllables.
Lojban seems to me to be a language especially suited to haiku, so I imagine this APE will be especially fun one.
I made the effort of making both the English translation and the Lojban be haiku, but the rest of you don't have to if the English is difficult to fit into haiku:
co'a lo vensa
lo cifxrula ba banro
ja'e lo nunmle
when the spring begins
the flower buds will blossom
and so comes beauty
