For this assignment, I'd like for you to attempt a Renga, or set of connected haiku. Characteristics of a Renga: Four-line stanzas which follow the 5-7-5, 7-7 syllable pattern Each haiku must contain a natural image coupled with a surprise Ideal line length is 36 lines, but can be up to 100 stanzas Usually written by two poets Now, write a 20-line (four stanza) renga. Each stanza should stand alone as its own haiku. Use the two lines at the end of each stanza to connect the haiku together. A cherry blossom floats in a reflecting pond A pillow for fish Soon it will be night, feeding animals gather so close Stars line the night sky negative pinpricks spotting embroidered canvas Angels sew them into wind, Their blood stains the clouds with joy
