A COLLECTION OF HAIKU

Written and illustrated by 4C


June 2017
Haiku is a form of traditional Japanese poetry.

Although sound units are different for


Japanese and English words, in English we
most often use syllables when writing a haiku.

The form of 3 lines and 5,7,5 is commonly used.


This refers to the first line containing five
syllables, the second line seven syllables and
the third line five syllables again.

We have tried to link our haikus to the theme


of nature, often used in Japanese haiku. We
were also challenged to create a poem that
makes the reader critically reflect on the topic.
Our artwork has been our inspiration.

We hope you enjoy this collection.

Trunks of fairy floss


A delicate existence,
Guardian of all.
Colours fill the sky
Melted rainbow dripping down
Falling all on me.
