surendras 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 What is Haiku? Haiku is one of the most important form of traditional japanese poetry. Haiku is, today, a 17-syllable verse form consisting of three metrical units of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. What to write about? Haiku-poems can describe almost anything, but you seldom find themes which are too complicated for normal PEOPLE's recognition and understanding. Some of the most thrilling Haiku-poems describe daily situations in a way that gives the reader a brand new experience of a well-known situation. The metrical pattern of Haiku Haiku-poems consist of respectively 5, 7 and 5 syllables in three units. In japanese, this convention is a must, but in english, which has variation in the length of syllables, this can sometimes be difficult. The technique of cutting The cutting divides the Haiku into two parts, with a certain imaginative distance between the two sections, but the two sections must remain, to a degree, independent of each other. Both sections must enrich the understanding of the other. To make this cutting in english, either the first or the second line ends normally with a colon, long dash or ellipsis. The seasonal theme. Must Haiku contain a kigo, a season word, which indicate in which season the Haiku is set. For example, cherry blossoms indicate spring, snow indicate winter, and mosquitoes indicate summer, but the season word isn't always that obvious. However, please note that Haiku-poems are written under different rules and in many languages. These are the difficulties, and the pleasure of Haiku.

Naaz 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2005 Saawan ko mausam Mehgai ko rimjhim Varsha ko bhel. Anjuli bhari Aashirvaad sath rahyo Purai umer bhari Bhok le ranthan Chhapro ko ghar Khuldaina Aal-Maari Madalu ko ghin ghin Talma jhumi rahechha Aaksh ko kalo badal Sthapit purus Ghar bhari luga-kapada Aafu Nariman baje nangai Dulahi aaien Sunsan aagan Basant aayo Kahan haraye Saathi jo yahan the Aba kahan chhan? Geet ra sangeet ko mel Basant ko mausan Samaya prem ko Aanshoo mero Be-Mausam ko varsha Hardam barsinchhan Aba raat paryo Samjhana ko haawaa chalyo Jhilmilayo ghar-aagan.
