INTRODUCTION

           
            The word literature literally means "things made from letters". Literature is commonly classified as having two major forms—fiction & non-fiction—and two major techniques—poetry and prose. There are different styles of music, such as classical and rock, so too there are also different forms of literature. Each is called genre and has its own distinct characteristics. These pages present a brief explanation and an example of each genre. They help you understand and appreciate the literature when you read these various works and their entity.

HAIKU POEMS

1.The summer breeze goes

Yet kids play all day, yes yes

Fun is what they are

2. Paw prints disappear

Into the snowy glen, but

Fox waits patiently

3. Whispering winds cry

While francized snowflakes scatter

Searching for other

4. Football is so cool

I love to play football too

So play football too

5. Over the wintry

Forest, winds howl in rage

With no leaves to blow

6. Trusting the Jesus

Good I bid farewell

To the departing year

7.Lady butterfly

Perfumes her wings by floating

Over the orchid

8. As the wind does blow

Across the trees, I see the

Bonds blooming in Merry

9. Stone walls standing still

The centre filled with hearting

Through stones half way up

10. Birds fly in the air

Birds can make nest in tall trees

Birds have nice big wings

11. Buzzing bumble bees,

Collecting lost of nectar

They have sharp stingers

12. The tree shape I blew

From a little drop of paint

Looks like a dancer

13. Pine boughs whispering

Blanket of snow filters in

Softer than a kiss

14.Cold December night

Moon and stars pave the sky in

Pale pearl and diamonds

15. Monkeys in the trees,

Swing on vines in canopy

Hide from predators

16. White, sandy beaches

Ocean waves from far away

Warn sun shining down

17.Black magic watches

You wonder and question

She sees right through you

18. Northern life is cold

July brings unheard of heat

Ice cream cones far all

19.Spring is really here

Flowers are starting to bloom

Sunshine fills the air

20. Mom watched over me

Till I could manage my self

I still hear her though

21. The willow vines flow

Tickling the grass with care

Now sharing her joy

22. Spring is in the air

Flowers beautifully bloom

Children are laughing

23. Snowflakes are our friends

The descend when winter

Making white blankets

24. If you are tender

To them, the young sparrows

Will poop on you

25.Stone walls standing still

The centre filled with hearting

Through stones half way up

26. My Friendlier butterfly

Dissolved frequently near

sultan temples

27. Splashing in the mud

Please don’t slip, the teacher said

Fancy willies walk

28. Jellyfish swimming

Though the cold ocean water

Slimly, Gooey, Ouch!!

29. hear my heart beating

I’ll stay with you forever

Keeping a promises

30. Seeking warm refuge

Creatures hide in show shelters

Winter’s, wrath delayed

31. Beautiful flower

Growing under the bright sun

Living for fat fish or mice

32.Precipitation

Brings more anticipation

And Contemplation

33.Why so scrawny, cat

Starving for fat fish and mice

Or backyard love

34. Paper, ink and pen

Another propitious day

For words to flourish

35. Hello satellite

Crash into the moon, we sail

Black hole Bats you up

36. The bursting bright sun

Reflects on the calm water

Which helps us cool down

37. The path, hard and long

Brings down with passage of time

And then my heart sings

38. It makes happiness,

The rushing, waving rivers

The earth means my life

39. Between the two trees

Looking up on their blankets

Which one should we climd?

40. I slugged two shots of

Plum brandy, convinced we have

Wandered back in time

41. Shells upon water

Washed ashore by gentle blue waves

Painted by the sun

42. They are much fun

Simple And easy to do

Toast is yummy

43. Temple bells die out

The fragrant blossom remain

A perfect evening

44. Dragonfly catcher

How far have you gone today

In your wondering

45. Bearing no flowers

I am free to toss madly

Like the willow tree

46.Make up your mind snail

Your are half inside your house

And halfway out!

47. In the falling snow

A laughing boy holds out his palms

Until they are white

48. Keep straight down this block

Then turn right were you will find and

A peach tree blooming

49. Whose town did you leave

O wild and drawing spring rain

And where do you go? 

50. An old silent pond...

A frog jumps into the pond,

splash! Silence again.
