Say more with fewer words.<\/p>\n<p>This practical guide by poet and teacher Bruce Ross shows you how to capture a fleeting moment, like painting a picture with words, and how to give voice to your innermost thoughts, feelings, and observations. You don&#8217;t have to be a practiced poet or writer to write your own haiku, and this book shows you how.<\/p>\n<p>In this book, aspiring poets will find: Accessible, easy-to-replicate examples and writing prompts A foreword that looks at the state of haiku today as the form continues to expand worldwide An introduction to related Japanese haiku forms such as tanka, haiga, renga, haibun, and senryu A listing of international journals and online resources<br \/>Do you want to tell a story? Give haibun a try. Maybe you want to express a fleeting feeling? A tanka is the perfect vehicle. Are you more visual than verbal? Then a haiga, or illustrated haiku, is the ideal match. Finally, a renga is perfect as a group project or to create with friends, passing a poem around, adding line after line, and seeing what your group effort amounts to.<\/p>\n<p>Ross walks readers through the history and form of haiku, before laying out what sets each Japanese poetic form apart. Then it&#8217;s time to turn to your notebook and start drafting some verse of your own!    <br \/> <br \/>\n         From the Publisher            <\/p>\n<p>                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"birdy\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/da10288c-28b6-4de7-956a-76ddc23adc19.__CR276,0,325,325_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"birdy\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/da10288c-28b6-4de7-956a-76ddc23adc19.__CR276,0,325,325_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"a-spacing-mini\"> A Deeper Look at Japanese Poetry  <\/h3>\n<p> Often when talking about Japanese poetry, one popular form is mentioned: haiku. But Japanese poetry has a myriad of poetic forms, including: haiku, senryu, haibun, tanka, haiga, and renga. In Writing Haiku: A Beginner&#8217;s Guide to Composing Japanese Haiku Poetry, Bruce Ross shares each form, its main elements and history, Japanese and American renditions, and examples of the poem in practice. <\/p>\n<p>\n                                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ok\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/284904e6-adbf-4935-8311-b5220c08f4ea.__CR505,163,1154,1154_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ok\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/284904e6-adbf-4935-8311-b5220c08f4ea.__CR505,163,1154,1154_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<p>\n                                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"yellow\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/2d43f7b2-9380-4116-ab5c-04fba75ffcaa.__CR526,168,1154,1154_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"yellow\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/2d43f7b2-9380-4116-ab5c-04fba75ffcaa.__CR526,168,1154,1154_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<p>\n                                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"green\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/467dcd46-b1e8-4be5-9eba-fdb0992b0820.__CR368,68,1364,1364_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"green\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/467dcd46-b1e8-4be5-9eba-fdb0992b0820.__CR368,68,1364,1364_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<p>                                                                HAIKU: Look at Nature                                       <\/p>\n<p> In haiku, we are presenting a deep feeling and describe what we saw. What we feel and what we saw are not necessarily the same thing. Traditionally, a haiku follows a 5-7-5 format, has a association to nature, and sets up the relationship between two images by separating those images with a punctuation mark. <\/p>\n<p>                                                                SENRYU: Tell a Joke                                       <\/p>\n<p> There is a kind of poetry that is similar in form to haiku but deals exclusively with human nature and most often is expressed as a joke. This form is called senryu. <\/p>\n<p>                                                                HAIBUN: Share a Story                                       <\/p>\n<p> If haiku is insight into a moment of experience, a haibun is the story or narrative of how someone came to have that insight. A haibun is a prose narrative that is autobiographical\u2014that is, in haibun you are telling a story about something you did or saw. <\/p>\n<p>\n                                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"blue\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/5fa76d1a-16a8-455e-bf0b-85722d9d3901.__CR368,68,1364,1364_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"blue\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/5fa76d1a-16a8-455e-bf0b-85722d9d3901.__CR368,68,1364,1364_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<p>\n                                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"22\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/09a8f3db-5c58-4784-afc7-a66069f9fc75.__CR375,0,1500,1500_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"22\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/09a8f3db-5c58-4784-afc7-a66069f9fc75.__CR375,0,1500,1500_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<p>\n                                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"dew\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/cbdc5775-35db-4123-ad79-f589c70f2668.__CR453,119,1250,1250_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"dew\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/cbdc5775-35db-4123-ad79-f589c70f2668.__CR453,119,1250,1250_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<p>                                                                TANKA: Express a Feeling                                       <\/p>\n<p> Of all the haiku-related poetic forms, tanka is most like what we call lyric poetry\u2014that is, poetry filled with highly personal and emotional expression. <\/p>\n<p>                                                                HAIGA: Draw a Picture                                        <\/p>\n<p> A haiga is not so much an illustration of a haiku as an artistic expression of the spirit of the haiku\u2019s feeling.
