The happy 4th grade poets from Howe School studied an ancient form of poetry from Japan called Haikus. The poem follows a specific structure of 3 lines; the first line must contain 5 syllables, the second line contains 7 syllables, and the third and last line contains 5 syllables. They then wrote their own haikus based on something they like. Enjoy!

The Fun Sun by Brazil W.

The fun sun is bright
It shines on me everyday
It makes me happy

At The Park by Milani W.

The park is so fun
On the swings I like to play
I go up and down
