Writing Haiku by Bruce Ross
A concise practical guide to composing and appreciating haiku, offering a clear explanation of traditional Japanese elements (seasonal words, cutting techniques, and the spirit of brevity) and how they can be adapted to English; it illustrates principles through examples, discusses the role of juxtaposition, sensory detail, line breaks, and rhythm, and provides exercises and prompts to develop observation and compression skills so readers can write more vivid, authentic short poems.
