Here are some examples of ESL student writing as they learn to write English poems, particularly Japanese haiku.
Rain is falling down, still
Trees are suppressing and waiting
Under he trees, you are
Cherry blossoms bloom
A girl standing with a smile
Waiting for someone
the son of sun
hot today, hot tomorrow
maybe we died
the sound of silence
nobody can hear, but can feel
it’s in the darkness
children don’t know me
and they shouldn’t know know me wholly
I am the failure
