G'day HF,
a heavenly feast aromatic decadence when daffodils smile
I like the images created.
Now look at this haiku: by Perdita Finn.
a fingernail moon: all that is left in the sky after the blizzard
Now, what has the poet created.
1st Identify the subject. Line one. 2nd define in a poetic way a central statement. Line 2. 3rd A final thought. Line 3.
Keep the above in mind using a syllable count of 5/7/5 then write your Haiku.
Not finnished yet.
1 write your Haiku. 2 Check the S/count (dictionary, Websters is a good choice). 3 Re-write and produce a poem that is a spiritual journey. Haiku is one of the traditional arts of Zen practice, one must not deviate from the spiritual essence of the poetry form. The poet should write Haiku as a type of thoughtful meditation.
Rgards,
John
