Haiku: Infolded Meaning By Dan Brady This is a selected collection of my haiku. I have a long history with this poetic form and remember first composing haiku in 4th grade, yet I still find it fascinating today. While, in essence, haiku is a simple set of three lines with but seventeen syllables. It may directly or indirectly indicate a season or capture a larger meaning in a momentary perception but haiku speaks of life and brings out something of the eternal in the present, of the infinite in the minute and the ethereal in the real; I find it all quite fascinating! Basho, Shiki and Buson have influenced me as well as reading haiku written by Beat Poets and by my experiences with The Haiku Poets of Northern California. While teaching, I helped students appreciate haiku before we went on haiku hikes where they found their own voices. As with most skills, teaching others is away to learn and learned to take my own haiku hikes. To this day, when camping or on a nature walk, I find opportunities to write haiku. I hope you'll enjoy this book; here are a couple of my favorites: In the cleft of clover Single dew drop gleams All the sun's circle inside Water strider A kick Ripples the moon.
