  10. #2 Haiku • A traditional form of Japanese poetry • Always has 3 lines and 17 syllables • 1st line = 5 syllables • 2nd line = 7 syllables • 3rd line = 5 syllables • Example The lightning crashes (5) Upon expectant earlobes (7) Making babies cry (5)

  11. A Haiku is . . . • Haiku is a Japanese verse form that relies on brevity and simplicity to convey its message. • It features 3 lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. • A haiku frequently includes natural images or themes. • First written in the 17th century, it is based on a Zen Buddhist philosophy of simplicity and the idea of perfection that excludes the extraneous.

  12. Haiku Examples Morning light appears (5) The new day has awoken (7) Nature stirs and sighs (5) As the setting sun Melts below the horizon, Stars applaud her bow

  13. Haiku: Take 1 (Rough Draft) • The bees are buzzing. • Beautiful flowers are here. • The flowers smell good. Haiku: Take 2--Try, Try Again (Final Draft) • Stinging bees buzzing • Beautiful flowers found here • Sweet, scented fragrance

  14. Transform Your Haiku • Eliminate Being Verbs (is/are/was/were) • Add Action Verbs (e.g. –ing words) • Use Articles Sparingly (e.g. a/an/the) • Use Descriptive Adjectives • Utilize Metaphors (“the sun, a ball of fire”)

  15. How to Make My Haiku • Write 5 rough draft haikus • Pick a nature topic • Remember your syllables: 5/7/5 • Then pick your 1 favorite • Use construction paper to make the shape of the theme of your haiku (e.g. lightning bolts, clouds, rain, tsunami, flowers, trees, plants, mountains, ocean waves, etc.) • Then, using your best printing or cursive, rewrite your favorite haiku on your shape

  16. #3 Concrete Poem • The shape of the poem suggests its subject • The poet arranges the letters, words, and lines to create a visual image

  19. Crying Springing from An eternal source My tears flow forth Blue droplets of pain Each more lonely Than the next A waterfall of hurt Takes a suicidal leap D i v e b o m b i n g From my eyes To the earth below Sp l a t t e r i n g The same ground you walk on Which is where My weeping ways wallow Freely floundering at your feet d i v e b o m b i n g d i g v n e i b b o m

  20. #4-5 Lyric Poetry • Expresses a poet’s thoughts and feelings about a single image or idea • Use sensory images to create impressions (sight, sound, touch, taste, smell) • Written in vivid, musical language • Examples • “Washed in Silver” – James Stephens • “I’m Nobody” – Emily Dickinson • “Me” – Walter de la Mare • “Song of Myself” – Walt Whitman

  21. “Washed in Silver” – James Stephens Gleaming in silver are the hills, Blazing in silver is the sea, And a silvery radiance spills Where the moon drives royally. Clad in silver tissue I March magnificently by.

  22. “I’m Nobody” – Emily Dickinson I'm nobody! Who are you? I'm nobody! Who are you?Are you nobody, too?Then there's a pair of us -- don't tell!They'd banish -- you know!How dreary to be somebody!How public like a frogTo tell one's name the livelong dayTo an admiring bog!

  23. “Me” – Walter de la Mare As long as I live I shall always be My Self - and no other, Just me. Like a tree. Like a willow or elder, An aspen a thorn, Or a cypress forlorn. Like a flower, For its hour A primrose, a pink, Or a violet – Sunned by the sun, And with dewdrops wet. Always just me.

  24. "Bus Stop“ -Donald Justice Lights are burningIn quiet roomsWhere lives go onResembling ours. The quiet livesThat follow us --These lives we leadBut do not own -- Stand in the rainSo quietlyWhen we are gone,So quietly . . . And the last busComes letting darkUmbrellas out --Black flowers, black flowers. And lives go on.And lives go onLike sudden lightsAt street corners Or like the lightsIn quiet roomsLeft on for hours, Burning, burning. “The Planet of Mars” -Shel Silverstein On the planet of Mars They have clothes just like ours, And they have the same shoes and same laces, And they have the same charms and same graces, And they have the same heads and same faces... But not in the Very same Places. Lyric Poetry Examples “A Red, Red Rose” -Scotsman Robert Burns O my luve's like a red, red rose That's newly sprung in June: O my luve's like the melodie, That's sweetly play'd in tune. “You’ve Got That Thing” -Cole Porter Your fetching physique is hardly unique,You're mentally not so hot;You'll never win laurels because of your morals,But I'll tell you what you've got . . .
