People say, "I wish I could write haiku - I don't think I can." I encourage them to give it a shot anyway.

It seems like it's in that fuzzy, dreamy area someplace in between. Wrote a haiku about that somewhere - after one of my many trips to the local Drive-In movies.

She has written several books about haiku and has written a lot of haiku. She is also part of Carpe Diem Haiku Kai. We have a special feature titled 'ask Jane' in which she answers questions about haiku and tanka (a five-lined Japanese poetry form). In a way she is my co-writer and that's great.Chèvrefeuillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00848986700725789154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512327745848627452.post-37696727799646606212014-12-03T20:43:51.778+01:002014-12-03T20:43:51.778+01:00PirateGunn.....read Lesson 10 of Jane's book, ...PirateGunn.....read Lesson 10 of Jane's book, BARE BONES (above in upper right corner of this page).....I believe she proves in that Lesson that Haiku uses all techniques (except for its exclusive form) of poetry....I was amazed at Jane's thoroughness in putting together what is an advanced work on poetry.... opie<br />opie houstonhttps://www.facebook.com/pages/Opies-poetry-friends/530846836971195?ref=bookmarksnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512327745848627452.post-16827669804454250312014-12-03T19:10:59.104+01:002014-12-03T19:10:59.104+01:00This was a terrific read.

Does haiku not stand alone in its own category, and is it not closer to photograpy than to poetry? Or to short pieces of writing, like captions, etc?'PirateGunnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619759991219830629noreply@blogger.com
