I love haiku! In fact, on my upper grade video on literacy work stations, Stepping Up with Literacy Stations, you can see a haiku poetry station in action in 5th grade. Here’s a winter haiku from One Big Rain: Poems for Rainy Days.

Some haiku really linger with us…my favorite is still “In the Station of the Metro” by Ezra Pound. I cannot shake it!
