Haikudle
Put the scrambled words of today's haiku back in order.
Every day: One haiku a day with some words scrambled; drag the highlighted words into the right order to reveal the day's poem and its artwork. New puzzle: Once a day, by calendar date.
Haikudle is a daily haiku puzzle. The day's poem appears over a blurred illustration with some words out of place, and you drag the highlighted words into the right positions to restore it. Solve it to reveal the full haiku and picture, then share it.
About Haikudle
Each day Haikudle presents one three-line haiku with several of its words shuffled. Highlighted words can be dragged and dropped; the task is to put them back where they belong so the poem reads correctly, keeping the familiar five-seven-five rhythm in mind. When the haiku is complete, the blurred background artwork comes into focus.
The site describes itself as using generative tools for its poems and images, and besides the daily puzzle it lets you create a haiku about any subject you type and share it with an accompanying picture. The daily challenge itself needs no signup, and the page invites you to return tomorrow for a new one.
It suits players who like short, calm word puzzles and a bit of poetry with their morning routine.

Tips
- Count syllables: a word that breaks the five-seven-five pattern is in the wrong line.
- Look for natural phrases, such as adjective before noun, first.
- Season words often belong in the first line of a haiku.
- Read the whole poem aloud once it is done to check it flows.
