Haiku for Aesthetic, Friendship and Language Development
Main Article Content
Abstract
Haiku originated from Japan consisting of 5-7-5 syllables in just three lines. This tiny poem was derived from Buddhist Zen teaching, helping on meditation at the present moment. Haiku is mostly about nature, seasons and small things surrounding us in everyday life. It is accepted in almost every country in the world and adapted to suit the local culture and languages. Haiku brings aesthetic, friendship and the language development. It is one of the few cultures from the far east to be accepted by the Western world. Academics used Haiku to study language development, psychology and even medical treatment.
