10 Days of Poetry

"Where, What, and When" Haiku:
Decide on a topic, make a list of phrases that tell where the action is occurring, make a list of phrases that tell what is happening, make a list of phrases that tell when the action is taking place. Then, use you list to create a 3 line Haiku with a syllable count of 5, 7, 5. Remember the thought should come first, then worry about making it fit. Use powerful, descriptive adjectives and verbs.
This is a Haiku poem that we learned how to write in class. Many students shared their Haiku's today. Please post any that you want to share with the class.

  1. Spring
    mountain sides of green,
    cherry blossoms start to bloom,
    pink and beautiful

  2. summer
    the summer sun shine high,
    the light make it hared to see,
    so bright and so right.

    Butterfly
    Drinking sweet nectar,
    A golden, yellow, flower,
    Late spring afternoon

    Flying above grass,
    yellow floating here and there,
    on a warm spring night!
