    I hear this a lot on WP. What is this haiku? and whats tanka?

      haiku and tankas are forms of japanese poetry. they have their specific formats like tanka has five lines with 5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second, 5 in third and 7 in fourth and fifth! Its pretty nice actually. I am sure there are many other intricacies but I am a novice myself! just teething :)
