Haikus



What is a haiku?
It is a tiny poem
First made in Japan

Watch your syllables
Five, then seven, again five
Some are different


What are they about?
Many describe nature scenes
fish, wind, flowers, land

Sometimes they do not
Emotions are written of
and other topics


Why write a haiku?
Use few words to express much
capture a moment

I suck at haikus
We have started them in class
I hope I don't fail
