Day 1 Prompt: Scientific method inspired Sciku

testable hypothesis shaped by questions and methods to be rejected

2020 is nearing its last breath, and no doubt these continue to be challenging times. Sometimes, it can be calming to turn our attention to a creative and doable task that focuses on positivity. Here at Science & Soul, we invite you to join us for the next 30 days to do just that and have a little fun science-inspired haiku (so #sciku?)

What’s a #sciku, you ask — According to The Sciku Project, it attempts to describe scientific discoveries in haiku form.

Haiku is a type of short form poetry originally from Japan consisting of 17 syllables in three phrases in a 5, 7, 5 pattern, and a seasonal reference. Essentially, a Haiku expresses much and suggests more in the fewest possible word and a Sciku is a portmanteau word for scientific haiku ( source : Wikipedia and The Sciku Project)

For the next 30-days, we will publish science-inspired haiku-like poetry ( so #sciku?) prompts to get you inspired — Our dear readers — why not spend some time each day creating and having a little fun — if you do, please feel free to publish it anywhere on medium just tag it with — #30DaysOfScikuChallenge.

**If haikus aren’t your jam — no worries — feel free to exercise your artistic creativity and write another form of a science-inspired story — I can’t wait to read what you come up with.
