It's National Haiku Poetry Day

Today, 17th April, is National Haiku Poetry Day. "Haiku" is a traditional form of Japanese poetry, with poems consisting of 3 lines. The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables. The lines rarely rhyme.

We asked our technical support team to write some Dolphin related Haiku, that is also educational, and they did a pretty good job!
