Water reflects sky
Summer my soul open wide
Under warmth’s spell still

Haiku
Written July 7, 2004 22:13
Pulled from: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?HaiKu
Haiku is a Japanese structure poem format. It consists
of three lines with five, then seven, then five syllables. Generally, they are
meant to be expressions of sensation (usually of nature). That is, something
you saw, or smell. Like little poetry photographs.
Didn't haiku develop from the final
"answering" part of a longer structure, the renga: a thing rather
like a sonnet, where an idea is introduced, developed then replied to, or
thrown into a new light? So a haiku could be compared to the closing couplet of
a ShakespeareanSonnet.
The RenGa
consists of a waki (sp?) followed by a hokku (sp?). These forms have been
translated into English as 7-7, 5-7-5. Also, the RenGa is a truly collaborative form of
poetry - so a RenGa wiki page is
much more ideal than a HaiKu wikki
page. Also, wakki just so happens to sound a whole lot like wiki.
