Haiku

Haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry.

The very first books ever written in Japanese were collections of legends and poems. The most famous kind of Japanese poem is the haiku, a very short poem with only three lines.

The most famous haiku poet was Basho (ba-shaw) (1644-1694). This is an English translation of his best known poem: The old pond A frog jumps in Sound of water

I walk across sand And find myself blistering In the hot, hot heat

The quiet water Swaying with seaweed and rocks The sun is at rest

What patterns do you recognize in all of these poems?

Haiku poems consist of 3 lines… The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables.

Here’s a Haiku to help you remember… I am first with five Then seven in the middle-- Five again to end.

Remember… A syllable is a part of a word pronounced as a unit. It is usually made up of a vowel alone or a vowel with one or more consonants. The word “syllable” has 3 syllables: syl–la-ble

How many syllables are in the word poetry? How many syllables are in the word haiku?

3 syllables: po-e-try 2 syllables: hai-ku

Haiku poems can almost act like a riddle.

Here is an example… Green and speckled legs, Hop on logs and lily pads Splash in cool water.

What animal do you think this Haiku is describing?

Try writing a Haiku poem about a certain animal, but don’t mention the animals name. See if your friends can guess what you wrote about.

How many syllables in each line? First line: 5 Second line: 7 Third line: 5 How many lines does a haiku poem have? 3 lines

Before you write your own haiku… What types of things are haiku poems usually written about? Things found in nature.

An animal, a season of the year, a raindrop or a snowflake are all examples of things you might write a Haiku about.

Swaying with seaweed and rocks Which is better? 2 image haiku single image haiku I walk across sand And find myself blistering In the hot, hot heat The quiet water Swaying with seaweed and rocks The sun is at rest

Juxtaposition

All Japanese haiku are written in one line, while in Western languages most are written in three lines. Nevertheless, pretty much all haiku have two parts, and the two parts usually convey two images. The exceptions are sometimes called "single image haiku."

Swaying with seaweed and rocks Alan Summers writes, haiku need "a break, a pause, a gap where sparks fly," to make them memorable. The internal comparison of images is the act that makes a haiku a haiku. What are the 2 things in this haiku? The quiet water Swaying with seaweed and rocks The sun is at rest

Autumn moonlight— a worm digs silently into the chestnut. In the moonlight, The color and scent of the wisteria Seems far away. Birds with paper wings Gliding on natures cool breath Precious like our love

Saijiki (sigh-gee-key) The Japanese have long wondered how writers in English could ever hope to write haiku when one of the most-basic writing tools was unavailable to them. Every Japanese writer owns one or more saijiki (sigh-gee-key).

Saijiki (sigh-gee-key) A saijiki is a dictionary of haiku in which the poems are arranged, not alphabetically, but by seasons. There are the 4 seasons and also one section for New Years Day. These 5 sections usually have 7 different categories. How many does that make???

Season (weather aspects indicative of that time of year) Celestial Phenomena (stars, sun and moon) Terrestrial Phenomena (mountains, fields, rivers, etc.,) Events (or holidays) Life (terms dealing with the daily life of humanity) Animals (deemed appropriate for each season) Plants found in each season.
