The Nuthatch, Haiku And Senryu

Revised Edition: LukivPress (Canada), 2019. Previously published as six blackbirds (SchoolNet Africa [South Africa], 2003). An excerpt // the soldier / dead in his foxhole, still / clutching his rifle // A Note for Teachers // Students may have fun finding out which poems are haiku as opposed to senryu, according to my definition (in the book), or another. They may enjoy finding literary devices used (see, e.g., Ament, 2003 [References, in the book]), or enjoy placing the poems in categories; for example, winter versus spring versus summer versus autumn, humorous versus serious, sad versus happy, traditional versus modern, or satirical versus sober. They may wish to line up those philosophical. They may wish to make up their own categories. In the end, I hope the students' reading of the poems enriches their lives and encourages them to author their own moments.
