Haiku Poems

Today we learnt about Haiku poems. Haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry.
They have 3 lines. The first line has 5 syllables. The second line has 7 syllables and the third line has 5 syllables.

We read some examples...

Wind pushing wings spinning down.
Down, down, down it goes.

On wings of many colours
Land upon flowers

Fly plane as fast as thunder
Waiting to come down.

Waiting, waiting to erupt
Lava destruction.

Wings as fast as motorbikes
Eyes as small as beads.

Making honey in their hive
Yummy honey Mmmm.
