The following are haiku and pictures written and drawn by Japanese grade school and high school children living in Japan. These were published online on a website called Children’s Haiku Garden, along with haiku written by children from the U.S., Canada, Australia and several other countries. I see the website as an international garden where all haiku and the children who write them coexist peaceably.
