Greetings family! You have learnt about Haiku in the previous prompts and now it's time to get you acquainted with the Haibun poetic form. What is a Haibun? A haibun is composed of two stanzas. The first stanza is a prose paragraph, and the second stanza is a haiku. For example: *In that chilly apartment, the cat found the warmest spot: on top of the refrigerator. The refrigerator would cycle off with a violent shiver and the cat's tail would twitch. In the silence that followed, we would lower our voices and move closer together. The walls were thin as takeout menus. The ceiling had a stain in the shape of Antarctica. We each had bruises on our hips from the other's hipbones* *killing time with a first-person shooter winter solstice* —Dave Bonta Please note, the haiku does not have to follow the 5-7-5 strict syllable structure. For today's writing exercise, compose a piece of haibun and tag us with #bun Have fun. For more information on this poetic, search for haibun examples from Google. As usual, we ask you to read and leave each other a feedback. People, be kind to one another. Toodles!
