Hello, Minna-san!
I know it has been about two months since my last updates. I'm trying to catch up everything. It's hard. My spirit has been down lately. But, I will work harder.
So, the last two weeks Sensei have given us a homework. And it was a Haiku Poems. I will explain briefly about it.
俳句 (HAIKU POEMS)
- "Haiku" is a traditional form of Japanese poetry. Haiku poems consist of 3 lines. The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables (5,7,5). The lines rarely rhyme."
- Introduced in 17th Century by famous poet Matsuo Basho (松尾芭蕉) (1644-1674).
