Posted an impromptu haiku the other day and was thinking...I love everything about them. They are concise, and have a simple, clean beauty to them (not mine necessarily-I ended up reading some before and a bunch after the post). I also researched their form, history and components and found out that I unintentionally included a common element (nature/season) into my own, kinda neat. I wish I could read/speak Japanese because it sounds like there are definite differences between the two languages-plus, they even look cool in Japanese-especially with the characters written vertically. Check some out for yourselves-a nice one posted in the comments to that post by Marina and also here http://www.haikupoetshut.com/

Peace to the Planet...
Note: the haiku I posted was not written by me. It is, in fact, the chorus of CeeLo Green's (not sure how to spell that, and too lazy to find out) song, "F*ck You" as I hope someone will have noticed. It just happens that the lyrics form a haiku.
ReplyDeleteOK-so Marina posted the lyrics of CeeLo which happen to be in the form of haiku-which I liked and can relate to, from the song "F*ck You", which I like and can also relate to.
