When I think of Haiku Poetry, it brings me back to the days sitting in elementary or middle school English class, learning about all the different types of poems. Not to mention trying to write my own poetry.
National Haiku Poetry Day
When we found out that today (April 17th) is National Haiku Poetry Day, I had an idea! We asked other staff members within the Credit Union to write a Haiku poem about the Credit Union. Or they could write it about their specific job. It was a great way to tap into the creativity here in the office and share more about the credit union difference! I’ll be sharing the poems they came up with in this post.
What is a Haiku Poem?
It had been a while since I wrote one, so I admit I googled it before starting to write. A Haiku is a traditional Japanese style of poetry that consists of only 3 lines. The first and last lines have 5 syllables while the second line has 7 syllables. You can bet we had fun working on these, it really had us thinking!
