Haiku Lessons from Sensei!

Hey there penguins! Megg posted about something new today. It looks like she decided to look for Sensei's old works. There is a poetic form called Haiku which is coming from the Japanese. It is the shortest poem in the world, I guess.

Anyway, now we're going to read Megg's haiku and write a new haiku. If you want to write a haiku, please. You can free here. So, here's the post:

Hi there penguin friends!

Check this out:

A Day for Haiku,
Was on April 17th,
Let us celebrate

Okay, maybe my haiku skills need some work. Luckily, I know a master poet who can help.

I've collected some of Sensei's past work so that we can learn from him. Here's one of his haiku that tells us exactly how they work:

To write a haiku
You just need to write three lines
Of five, seven, five

Five, seven, five, got it! Let's see what else Sensei says.

And it's quite easy,
To sound very sage and wise,
Speaking with haiku

So true! I feel wise just reading them. Hmmm... what else can I find?

Like the great cookie
We must have honor and strength
And chocolate chips

Wise words that include chocolate chips? I'm really liking this haiku thing.

Do you have any haiku you'd like to share? Let's get poetic in the comments below!

OK, that's weard. I am not sure that I understand this Haiku thing, but I can tell that Megg loved it. :)

Have a nice day penguins!
