HAIKU POETRY
(Haiku Poetry & Lyrics)

Introduction

Haiku in English Language is a very short Poem which impresses listeners.

It’s a Japanese famous Poetry. A Haiku in the English language is often written in three short lines and read out aloud in about six seconds. Haiku is a world’s shortest poem consisting of just 17 syllables, also called morae or morae. Total Three line poem. First line 5 words (words are called syllables or morae), second line 7 words, Third line 5 words).

How to write Haiku poem: A haiku is a short three line poem that uses sensory language to capture a feeling or image. Haiku poetry was originally developed by Japanese poets. People are often inspired by nature a moment of beauty, or poignant experience. To write a haiku, start by brainstorming ideas for the poem. Then, write the poem with strong details and detailed imagery. Make sure you polish the haiku and listen to how it sounds out loud so it is at its best. A haiku expresses a single feeling or impression and contains three unrhymed lines of five, seven and five syllables, respectively.

What are haiku? A hai means ‘unusual’ and ku means ‘verse’ or ‘strophe’. So haiku are, literally, unusual verses.

Example-1:  Go for a walk in nature: Many haiku are inspired by objects in the natural world, such as trees, rocks, mountains and flowers. To get ideas for your poem, take a walk in a part nearby or go for a hike in the woods. To head to the mountain trail or a body of water like a river, lake, or beach. Spend some time in nature and observe, it is so you can get ideas for the poem.

Example – 2: Focus on a season or seasonal event or on a natural Nature’s beauty or Nature’s water-falls and mountains: Haiku can also be about a season, viz. fall, spring, winter or summer. You can also focus on a natural event that happens at a certain time of year, such as the blooming of the cherry blossom, trees in your neighborhood.

Seasonal haiku often focus on a specific detail about he season, naming the season in the poem. Writing about a season can be a fun away for you to describe a particular detail you love about that time of year.

Example – 3: Choose a person or object as your subject: Haiku do not all have to be about nature or the seasons. You can also choose a particular person or object or love or beauty, as inspiration for the poem. May be you want to write a funny haiku about you god. Or perhaps you want to write a thoughtful haiku about your childhood toy.

·        Try to only focus on one person or one object or one specific subject in the poem. Haiku are short and you may not have enough space in three lines to write every thought you have about the person or object of on nature or love etc.

Writing a haiku requires intense effort but the poem is well worth it. It is easy to feel a sense of perfection when viewing a perfectly formed Haiku.
