[first,some info]
Haiku (俳句, Haiku?) listen (help·info) is a mode of Japanese poetry, the late 19th century revision by Masaoka Shiki of the older hokku (発句, hokku?), the opening verse of a linked verse form, haikai no renga. The traditional hokku consisted of a pattern of approximately 5, 7, 5 on. The Japanese word on, meaning "sound", corresponds to a mora, a phonetic unit similar but not identical to the syllable of a language such as English. (The words onji,moji (character symbol) are also sometimes used.) A haiku contains a special season word (the kigo) representative of the season in which the renga is set, or a reference to the natural world. ("sound symbol") or
Haiku usually combines three different phrases, with a distinct grammatical break, called kireji, usually placed at the end of either the first five or second seven morae. In Japanese, there are actual kireji words. In English, kireji is often replaced with commas, hyphens, elipses, or implied breaks in the haiku. These elements of the older haiku are considered by many to be essential to haiku as well, although they are not always included by modern writers of Japanese "free-form haiku" and of non-Japanese haiku. Japanese haiku are typically written as a single line, while English language haiku are traditionally separated into three lines.
Ok.. And now,.. some of my poems:
*Laters*
A withered old leaf
Separated in two halves
By the slice of time.
*Impulsivity*
A cup of warm tea
Having the rare rudeness of
Being spilt on hearts.
*Randomness*
A bird with no wings
Searching for you in vain
In a different world.
*Spoiled thought*
Your dark secret thought
Has told me that you can't walk
On my frozen heart.
*Apocalypse*
Bringing some brightness
To a world filled up with gore
By losing its sense.
*Emotive*
A random shadow
Crying deeply because of
Taking a bad life mark.
*Withdrawn*
Savage black pencil
Closed in a wide dirty box
Just praying to breathe.
