What is Haiku?
Haiku (hi-koo) is a traditional Japanese form of
poetry, most often in the form of 17 syllables,
broken into 3 lines (5, 7, 5 sylables per line).
What makes a good
Haiku?
A former president of the Haiku Society
of America once commented that, "...near-religious reverence
was bestowed on the author of (even) a 'passable' haiku." Unfortunately
she followed by saying that no one knows exactly why a particular
haiku is good. But that, "it's
clear that the author had experienced a divine moment."
