That's right. It's time to put on your thinking cap and come up with your best soccer haiku. What is a haiku you ask? A haiku is a form of Japanese poetry that consists of 17 morae (syllables) in a 5, 7, 5 pattern. An example of a haiku is:
Dribble, pass, dribble
Past the defenders I go
To score a quick goal
