Haiku is a style of Japanese poetry, which arises when the country erupts in the literature in the eighth century or so. Literature influenced by China (which, at that time was more than 20 centuries old) and after a logical evolution by the routes of Zen and Taoism, haiku emerges as the voice of nature and moments everyday life, reflected in a few syllables short poems (traditionally: 5-7-5). In them, the everyday events and nature with all its scenery, are literally painted by haijin (name given to those poets dedicated to this type of poetry)
