FOREWORD ik A Japanese haiku is a short, three-line, seventeen- syllable poem, very popular among all classes in Japan. Although it is short, it is by no means simple, for in this extremely rigid form, the poet attempts to create a mood or express an emotion through a mere sketch of it--often suggesting a sort of metaphor between two very different things. The statement is not a complete one; the reader is expected to help create the poem by bringing to it his own memories and emotions. These haiku are usually accom¬ panied by a small sketch suggested by the poem. It is hoped that in the sketches and haiku presented on the division pages of this book, the reader will be able to see, with the help of his own memories and emotions, a slightly different view of Park College. isVi When a nightingale-- Sang out.
