KIGO: August
ART: Anna Eliza Hardy, Morning Glories -1877
MORNING GLORIES: take a couple of months to burst out in blooms. They bloom in August. They are weeds that smother other plants.
HAIKU are short, imagistic poems about things that make people feel connected to nature. Japanese poets usually write a haiku in 17 syllable sounds in a short/long/short pattern of 5/7/5. Japanese are shorter than English syllables. English haiku tends to be less than 17 syllables.
A haiku should share a moment of awareness with the reader in a few words to recreate the experience, the image or images that gave us the feeling. (Willian Higginson).
