Haiku is a revered form of poetry that originated in Japan. Over the years, the traditional haiku form, which evokes emotions largely through descriptions of scenes from nature, has been adapted to other languages. This site features original haiku in English by Kevin, an amateur haiku poet. He sometimes uses unconventional haiku styles, while attempting to maintain the spirit of this timeless poetic form.

in the hammock neither happy nor sad
...
breeze rustling leaves surf splashing shore I hear my every breath
