Tanka and Haiku Pair (same theme)
A chapter in the book 2024 Gypsy's Tanka
Old Cherry Tree
by Gypsy Blue Rose
children and birds chirp
even the old cherry tree
blooms every spring with bountiful fruits— heavy branches hang low for the farmer's children sparrows feed
on higher cherry tree boughs — timeless chirping songs  |
HAIKU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. It resonates on a deeper level, enlightening the reader and making an insightful connection. English Haiku doesn't follow the 5/7/5 form, because Japanese syllables are much shorter. The rule of thumb is to write it as succinctly as possible and 17 syllables or less.
