Seasons of Haiku : About Hope and Life With Bamboo Images.
73
Haiku: A Gift of Visualization.
Seasons of Haiku: About Hope, Life and Bamboo Poems; by Pearldiver, an awesome collection of original haiku that inspire. Seasons of Haiku describe the beauty of nature and life, in the Poetry of the Japanese. In Haiku Poetry words are crafted to create a powerful and sensual image of the everyday things in the lives of the Japanese. Traditional Haiku emphasizes that 17 Syllables only can be used to create that image. Non Traditional Haiku has been adopted outside of Japan for its descriptive simplicity.
Today merging cultures have created many new styles of haiku and this has ensured that the ancient art of word mastery will survive for many more centuries. This work was not intended to be a reference guide to the old masters of Japan; even though the greatness of prolific haiku writers like Kobayashi Issa, merit the credit for inspiring so many during and beyond his lifetime. These haiku have been written by Pearldiver and represent his very first effort at writing in the visual pictures of creative haiku. Please Enjoy Seasons of Haiku.

Really lovely Haiku. Also enjoyed the images........Thanks
i like autumn shades best. i opted not to post my attempt to haiku because it is different.
Fantastic!!! I have never been good at Haiku, these are wonderful!
By the way, thank you for your notes!... woohoo!!! I'm back!!
Thank you for the compliment Alekhouse. The images are Wood Block Prints from various masters. Winter feaures Hokusai regarded as the grand master whos works include 36 veiws of Mt.Fuji. This is my first attempt at Haiku; so I am humbled by the response received. Thank you for enjoying.
Hi Bingskee, thank you for reading this. Please post your work; it is with difference that we gain our confidence over those who remain the same. How would you know if your work is a masterpiece; unless you measure it against.....
Hi Candie, welcome back!! Cheers for your very positive comment.. I'm sure you would do well by posting your Haiku; I would be your fan (on the condition that you write from the hat's perspective lol). Thank you for taking the time to take the time Candie.
Also.. Above.. Sorry I referred to Hokusai's work as being the Winter Wood Block Print. Hokusai's work is the Summer image above. This particular print is called: Limitations.
This is so lyrical, both words and pictures! :)
Thank you Feline Prophet, I appreciate your comment. Glad you enjoyed this work. Cheers for reading it.
Very nice. I've always loved the art of Haiku, and you've got some truly impressive pieces here.
Hi Jacklhasa, thank you for reading this work and for your kind comments. I am new to this, so I appreciate your compliment very much. Take care and all the best.
Beautiful! We are writing some Haikus in my Philosophy class so I really enjoyed reading these. Thank you!
Hi Aqua, Thank you. You will have some fun writing poetry in this format. I'm glad you enjoyed this simple work. Good luck wih your Haiku; I'll enjoy reading it. Take care.
Your pieces are nothing less than exquisite. I must admit that the Autumn Shades is my favorite, but all are great. Thank you so much for sharing. :)
-Ann
Hi Ann, Thank you so much for your comments; these works were my first effort at writing Haiku without really knowing what I was doing. I like your work also and look forward to following the art of your heart. Take care.
I liked these, especially Autumn Shades! Glad you posted.
Hi Jeffrey, Thank you for reading this work. Autumn shades anywhere in the world tend to leave lasting impressions. Glad you enjoyed this Haiku. Take Care.
I have been reading and writing haiku for decades now.
I have taught it in classrooms and I have written articles about it.
I really enjoy it.
Hi wsp, Thanks for taking the time to read this work. With experience like that, I'm sure you do enjoy Haiku very much. I would enjoy reading your works. I hope you enjoyed mine.. it was my first attempt at Haiku. Take Care.
I love Haiku..Summer Love and Autumn Shades, lovely.
Mr Rob, I am thanking you for your comments in my 100th hub, I am grateful to be one of your friend, you are very intelligent, and you do care always! and yes I am a fast horsie, where can we start, LOL, Merry Xmas to you and your loved one, Maita
Hi Maita, it was my pleasure and was easy to express the truth. Yes and.. Yes..and.. Ummm, I have alot of experience with fast horses, having bought and raced a few successfully in my life. I learnt that the best generally have a really good heart score; a special point which is often overlooked by inexperienced owners; but the key thing in their ability to win. Maybe writing is the same? Good hearts are hard to find, like fast horses huh? Merry xmas Maita. Take care.
i enjoyed this, and one day i will get around to haveing a go at Haiku
Hi Brenda, thanks for reading this. You should just start. Haiku is light and I found it easy to write, as practically anything goes visually. Glad you enjoyed. Take care.
Loved all the images, though the autumn shades was the most beautiful one. '..departing Souls of Past Green Life..' this was just so beautifully put. You're a truly gifted writer.... :)
Hello MOW... Thank you for reading this work and your kind comments. I think Autumn is my favorite season here too. Take Care.
These haij=ku are really cool! Loved the seasons, all of them. And the pix are great also!
Love and peace
Tony
