Haiku Poetry

Haiku Poetry is a Japanese form of poetry. Can a machine write poetry as well as a human being? In the following examples, a human wrote three poems and three poems were computer generated. Can you tell the poems apart?

1. The frosty rock 4. A full moon

A rain has fallen of a moon Autumn night veiled

Misty summer rain in silence

2. In a deep forest 5. A flowing clear moon

The water is falling gently on a flowing sea

The sun was rising A flower grows

3. Rock of a storm 6. Summer night

A liquid waterfall under a moon the sky’s flower garden

Playful sky Fireworks blooming

D. Osgood, I was very impressed that a computer could write poetry as well as a human. I only guessed two out of six poems. My favorite poem was number five.
