AIMS
In this first lesson you will be introduced to
» what the haiku is and its special spirit
» a number of examples by Japanese masters of the form and some Western ones
» studying structural features of poems and making interpretative judgements about them, and
» writing your first poems
By the end of the lesson, you should have written some of your own poems, and, more importantly, they should be poems that are truly in the spirit of haiku, not just seventeen-syllable thoughts or jokes.
