The Haiku

Wikipedia
The haiku is a poem born in Japan , consists of three lines totaling seventeen syllables .
Cascina Macondo
1) HAIKU - definition of Cascina Macondo
L 'is a haiku poem strictly composed of three lines, respectively, 5 - 7 - 5 syllables. Must contain the Kigo (a reference to the season) or the Small Kigo (a reference to a part of the day)

2) Senryu - definition of Cascina Macondo

The Senryu is strictly a poem composed of three lines, respectively, 5 - 7 - 5 syllables does not contain a Kigo, Kigo or the Piccolo.

3) HAIKAI - definition of Cascina Macondo

The 'Haikai is strictly a poem composed of three lines, respectively, 5 -7 -5 syllables with humorous connotation, funny, insane. May or may not contain the Kigo or Small Kigo. We must not confuse it with the haiku pervaded by the mood Karumi (the delicacy, lightness, innocence, little smile, the little irony, the little humor, vision light, girlish, free from the weight of culture and technique). Nell'haikai humorous connotation is quite marked.

Isoladellapoesia.com

The haiku is a poem whose traditional structure is formed only by three lines, respectively 5-7-5 syllables, therefore, for a total of 17 syllables. This is one of the most important, and probably best known abroad of traditional poetry.
Created in Japan in the seventeenth century, the haiku has a subject fast and intense scenes that are, in general, the nature and the emotions that they leave us with dell'haijin (the poet)

Filosofipercaso.it

In Japanese literature, the haikus are a very important part in the culture nipponica. The basic task, and 'to testify the truth, returning to a pure language simple and instinctive. Life force is revealed to the mind devoid of schemes and prejudices. In their simplicity, express the need of man to be at one with nature. The haiku, go always interpreted as evidence of a vision, his vision.

And we could continue to bring back other definitions, but does not seem the case.

We begin by establishing fixed points:

The haiku originated in Japan in the seventeenth century, and 'a poem of 17 syllables divided strove to 3 of 5 - 7 - 5 syllables.
The classic haiku, inside it involves the insertion of the small or Kigo Kigo (explicit or implicit reference to the seasons or parts of days).
The haiku "is what happens as it happens."
Needless to say that this type of poetry is born and develops a culture of Buddhist Zen simplicity ', the search, the desire to look beyond the simple words are the characteristics of haiku ..

It 'so easy a poem? Absolutely not. Just as said before: the simplicity 'and' only in the "form", while the content leads to exploring the human soul by comparing it with what surrounds him.

A scholar of Zen haiku once said "Before the amazement and silence even 17 syllables may be too many" and 'That's the way haiku, words like brushstrokes, light signs and basic, nothing left to chance, but while nothing superfluous.

And 'with this intent that I approached this kind of poetry, and I' was made known by a "friend of the web".
Probably, wanting to be precise, my compositions ranging dall'haiku to senriu or, if you prefer, you could define modern haiku (as some do not speak of the link Nature / Man), despite what 'the spirit that brings me to write these haiku and 'the one described above.

As mentioned before the haiku also has a "modern culture" or, in my opinion, westernized, if I may also consider haiku poems that do not have the kigo kigo or small, I find it hard to accept that as haiku poems by Rule 5/7 / 5 are passed to the rule "what / I / need."
Sure can 'happen (and there are studies that support this theory) that remove or add a few syllables to maintain a sense of poetry, but they remain exceptions, no systematic breaking the "rules".

As a final consideration, then, I remember that haiku are taught in schools (eg the U.S. and Morocco) and e 'own compositions by children, who often manage to find (especially in the West) that simplicity' that must characterize the haiku, making in order to overturn our beliefs to be considered "masters" and those who 'are' devoid of culture but also those "ideological architectures" that lead the educated man to fail to look beyond what is apparent.

Curiosity '

A character of the novel It by Stephen King, a boy, wrote a haiku on a postcard to win the girl he loves, which reads:
Brace for Winter
Your hair
Where my heart burns

Even Ian Fleming pitches in a Haiku (in the modern conception) in fact the book "You only live 2 times" does just that Bond reference to a Haiku composed at the invitation of the Tigre:

"You only live twice

once when you are born

and once when you look / death in the face "

Against the Decalogue to write Haiku (http://oradistelle.altervista.org)

1. The haiku is NOT a judgment, a judgment or a comment with moral or educational purposes, nor is any thought split into three lines.

2. The haiku is NOT a quaint little picture to be framed with beautiful words ...

3. EVEN ... and the generalization of a situation, the attention, in fact, is focused on an event, a place or a particular moment, because it captures the nature of things is the essence of haiku.

4. It is NOT a philosophical summation, but it must have its depth. A good haiku is not flat, but multi-dimensional.

5. The haiku is NOT a display of rhetorical devices, or a game.

6. The haiku does not have to deal with the first object that appears under the eyes (for good or bad it is) or the first idea that comes to mind. The haiku should be the fruit of reflection (ie: the inspiration to be clever). At the same time, however, scivere haiku should not be reduced to a mere intellectual operation.

7. The haiku is NOT to be exhaustive or, worse, talkative (yes, even in three ways you can be verbose): one of its key components is the indefiniteness.

8. In scrvere haiku, do NOT use unnecessary or redundant words, especially to indicate the kigo, but choose words that have the right value and the right number of syllables.

9. Nell'haiku NOT wasting space. Every word, every syllable is precious. Dedicagli all the time it deserves.

10. Nell'haiku is NOT a humanization of nature, but man must "naturalize" return to nature.
