Nice to see you friend. Are you ready to WONDER? It's time for haiku.
Did you like our ? Since it doesn't , it probably doesn't sound like most of the poems you may have heard. It's a special kind of called a haiku.

Much like a , a haiku captures a moment in time. The main is usually a or description . Traditional Japanese haiku typically describe , while English haiku include many different subjects.

A haiku contains 17 syllables in three lines of . A is a of language that consists of an unbroken sound used to make up words. For example, the word "cat" contains one , "" contains two syllables, and "beautiful" contains three syllables.

The 17 syllables in a haiku are divided up in a particular way. The first line of a haiku contains five syllables. The second line features seven syllables. The last line returns to five syllables.

Unlike many other forms of , haiku poems do not need to . For a challenge, though, some haiku poets will try to the first and third lines.

Exploring the of haiku can be a great way to introduce writers to the world of . The poems are short and simple, and they on one , item, or moment in time.

Here are a couple of examples of haiku by Matsuo Bashō, a famous Japanese haiku poet from the 17th century:

An " poem" is a poem in which the first letter of each line - read vertically - spells out a word or a message.

The word "" comes from the Greek words "akros" (outermost) and "stichos" (line of verse). Usually, the word or message spelled out by the first letters of each line is the overall subject of the poem.

Here is an example of a simple poem:

Dedicated to me Always there when I need him D eserves my love and respect!

poems have been around for thousands of years. In fact, poems can be found among the works of ancient Greek and Latin writers, monks and Renaissance poets.

An poem in which the initial letters spell out the alphabet is called an " abecedarius ." Interestingly, there are several abecedarian poems in the Bible (based on the Hebrew alphabet). Examples can be found in Psalm 119 and Lamentations.

You can also find more modern examples of acrostics. The final chapter of Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass: And What Alice Found There contains a poem entitled "A Boat Beneath a Sunny Sky," which turns out to be an of the real Alice's name: Alice Pleasance Liddell.

The Dutch national ("The William") is also an , in which the first letters of its 15 stanzas spell Willem Van Nassov - one of the hereditary titles of William of Orange, who uses the poem to introduce himself to the Dutch people.

Although simple poems feature a word or message created by the first letter of each line of poetry, more adventurous poets have come up with double acrostics (words formed by the first and last letters of each line) and even triple acrostics (words formed by the first, middle and last letters of each line)!

Have you heard the one about the old man with a beard? If you have, then you're already familiar with the . If not, then read on.

Limericks began hundreds of years ago as parts of nursery rhymes and poems for children. They gained popularity with the 1846 publication of Edward Lear's .

Children loved Lear's verses, and May 12 - Lear's birthday - is now celebrated as Day around the world each year.

Limericks are short, five-line poems with a specific rhyming pattern. They tend to be about people and interesting places. Plus, they're almost always really funny!

Limericks have an a-a-b-b-a rhyming pattern. This means that the first, second and fifth lines rhyme, while the third and fourth lines also rhyme - but not with the other lines.

Here's one of Edward Lear's famous limericks that shows this rhyming pattern:

a: There was an Old Man with a beard, a: Who said, "It is just as I feared! b: Two Owls and a Hen, b: Four Larks and a Wren, a: Have all built their nests in my beard!"

This example also shows another common feature of limericks. Usually, the A lines (first, second and fifth) are longer, while the B lines (third and fourth) are slightly shorter.

If you're wondering why these short, funny poems are called "limericks," you're not alone. Historians and poetry experts have debated the of the term for years.

Most people tend to believe the name came from the city of in Ireland, where people used to play a verse word game that typically ended with the line, "Won't you come up to ?"

Although Lear is best known for his limericks, other famous authors have written them from time to time. Shakespeare himself included limericks in longer verses in Othello, King Lear, The Tempest and Hamlet. Other famous authors who have written limericks include Ogden Nash, Isaac Asimov and Mark Twain.

Here are a couple more examples of limericks from Lear:

There was an Old Person whose habits, Induced him to feed upon rabbits; When he'd eaten eighteen, He turned perfectly green, Upon which he relinquished those habits.

There was a Young Lady whose chin, Resembled the point of a pin; So she had it made sharp, And purchased a harp, And played several tunes with her chin.

A is a special form of poetry that takes its name from the Italian word sonetto, which means "little song" or "little sound." Although English poet William Shakespeare is famous for his plays, he also wrote 154 sonnets (not including the ones that appear within his plays).

Sonnets are poems of 14 lines that follow a specific rhyming pattern. Sonnets usually feature two contrasting characters, events, beliefs or emotions. Poets use the form to examine the tension that exists between the two elements.

Several variations of structure have evolved over the years. The most common - and the simplest - type is known as the English or Shakespearean .

Shakespearean sonnets contain 14 lines, which each have 10 syllables and are written in iambic pentameter . Iambic pentameter is a pattern in which an unstressed syllable is followed by a syllable repeated five times.

The da- DUM sound of the human heartbeat is sometimes used as an example of iambic pentameter : da- DUM, da- DUM, da- DUM, da- DUM, da- DUM. The opening line of Shakespeare's " 12" provides a good example of the da- DUM rhythm of iambic pentameter : When I do count the clock that tells the time ...

Shakespearean sonnets follow a specific rhyme pattern - a-b-a-b / c-d-c-d / e-f-e-f / g-g - and the last two lines form a rhyming couplet. Shakespeare's " 18" - sometimes called "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" - is one of his most famous sonnets:

a Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? b Thou art more lovely and more temperate. a Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, b And summer's lease hath all too short a date. c Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, d And often is his gold complexion dimmed; c And every fair from fair sometime declines, d By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed; e But thy eternal summer shall not fade, f Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest, e Nor shall death brag thou wanderest in his shade, f When in eternal lines to time thou growest. g So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, g So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Another key element of the is the volta- or "turn" - which is the point in the where there's a change from one rhyme pattern to another that signals a change in subject matter. In the example above, the volta occurs in the ninth line when the word "But" signals a subject change and the rhyme pattern changes to e-f-e-f.

In addition to the English or Shakespearean , two other popular types of sonnets are the Spenserian (named after poet Edmund Spenser) and the Italian or Petrarchan . These types of sonnets can be identified by their unique rhyming patterns. There are also more obscure types of sonnets, some of which have no recognizable rhyming pattern.

Over the years, many poets and writers have written sonnets. Some of the more famous authors include John Donne, John Milton, Ezra Pound, Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Edna St. Vincent Millay.

Today's Wonder of the Day was inspired by Ava. Ava Wonders, " Who was Robert Frost? " Thanks for WONDERing with us, Ava!

Do you like making decisions? Or do you usually to let someone else make decisions for you? When you're out running with your family and everyone is getting hungry, what is your when asked, "Where do you want to eat?"

Indecision can be frustrating for the driver in this . In fact, many parents have wished there was a restaurant named "I Don't Care," so that they could simply drive straight there when they receive that as the answer to their question!

Decisions are important, because they have consequences . When you're at a in the road, your to go to the left instead of the right can have repercussions that last a .

So how do you decide which road to take? Some people choose to take the road less traveled. Why? Perhaps it's because of their interpretation of a famous poem called "The Road Not Taken" by American poet Robert Frost:

Two roads in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth ;

Then took the other, as just as ,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads in a wood, and I -

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

The common, popular interpretation of the last lines is that, when given the , one should not follow in the footsteps of others, but instead take the road less traveled. The implication is that doing so may result in greater risk, but will also greater rewards. But is that what Frost meant?

Robert Frost was born in 1874 in San Francisco, California. He spent his first 40 years in relative . It wasn't until he lived in England for a while and published his first works there that he was able to return to the United States at the beginning of World War I and achieve success as a poet.

He became well-known for his realistic depictions of everyday life in New England. He eventually won four Pulitzer Prizes for his poetry and was considered by many to be the unofficial "poet laureate" of the U.S.

"The Road Not Taken" is by far Frost's most famous work. In fact, experts consider it to be the most widely read and remembered American poem of the last century. Its iconic last lines have been repeated so often that some people think the title of the poem is actually "The Road Less Traveled."

Poetry experts are quick to point out that it's also likely the most misinterpreted poem of all time. If you read the poem carefully, it's clear that there's not much difference between the two roads. Frost describes one road as "just as " as the other and notes that travelers "[h]ad worn them really about the same."

The title also provides a clue that everything may not be as it seems with Frost's poem. Readers tend to focus on the road less traveled, since Frost says it "has made all the difference." Yet he titles his poem "The Road Not Taken," which should put our focus on the road that wasn't taken.

Some scholars believe the poem can only be correctly interpreted in light of Frost's inspiration: his walks through the English countryside with British poet Edward Thomas. Frost supposedly wrote the poem for Thomas as a gentle joke about Thomas' tendency to regret whatever path they took on their walks.

Frost apparently didn't believe in over what might have been. Perhaps his message to the reader is simply to focus on the path you choose and make the most of it. If you do that, it will make all the difference. If so, that's good advice for any decision you might need to make!

Do you love a good ghost story? When it's and you're sitting around a campfire with friends, do you enjoy the that runs down your when someone spins a that gives you thrills and chills?

If you're a fan of the mysterious and the , then you might like something like this:

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,

Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;

But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token,

And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, "Lenore?"

This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, "Lenore!"-

Merely this and nothing more.

What emotions do you feel when you read those words? Do you think they're poetic? Actually, they're "Poe"-etic!

Those lines are from a famous called "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe. Born on January 19, 1809, Poe was a famous American author known for his and mysterious poems and tales.

Poe was one of the earliest American writers to focus on short stories. His mysteries are often considered to be the start of the fiction . Poe's works also inspired a growing science fiction .

Early in his career, Poe worked as an editor and a literary critic for various journals. He published his "The Raven" in January 1845, and it was an instant . However, Poe enjoyed little fame and fortune. Although he is famous today for his influence on American literature and popular culture, Poe remained relatively unappreciated during his lifetime.

Poe died in Baltimore on October 7, 1849, at the young age of 40. Even today, his death remains as mysterious as his tales. Theories abound as to his cause of death, including possibilities such as alcohol, drugs, cholera, tuberculosis , , rabies, suicide, carbon monoxide poisoning, and even murder!

Along with "The Raven," some of Poe's most works include "The Fall of the House of Usher," "The Cask of Amontillado," and "The Murders in the Rue Morgue." Poe's words live on today, creating the same compelling , atmosphere now as they did back then.

Today's Wonder of the Day was inspired by Sharissa. Sharissa Wonders, " Who was Langston Hughes? " Thanks for WONDERing with us, Sharissa!

The African-American experience in America has been written about by many people from a variety of viewpoints and backgrounds . From the 1920s through the 1960s, though, there was one African-American poet, novelist, and playwright whose voice consistently chronicled the experience of the average African-American: Langston Hughes.

Born James Mercer Langston Hughes in Joplin, Missouri, in 1902, Hughes' parents separated shortly after his birth. His father moved to Mexico while his mother traveled frequently , leaving Hughes to be raised by his grandmother.

Hughes' grandmother passed away when he was a teenager, and he moved in with his mother, eventually settling down in Cleveland, Ohio. Hughes began to write poetry as a teenager after teachers introduced him to the influential work of poets such as Walt Whitman, Carl Sandburg, and Paul Lawrence Dunbar.

Hughes graduated high school in 1920 and spent a year in Mexico with his father. Around this same time, his poem called "The Negro Speaks of Rivers" was published in The Crisis . It received high and Hughes returned to the U.S. and enrolled at Columbia University.

During his one year at Columbia, Hughes became a primary contributor to the and cultural movement known as the Harlem Renaissance. Wanting to see the world, Hughes dropped out of Columbia and enlisted as a on a that would take him to Africa and Europe.

Hughes continued to write poetry and, upon his return to the U.S. in 1924, he was working in Washington, D.C., when he crossed paths with famous poet Vachel Lindsay. Lindsay was impressed with his work and helped to Hughes' poetry to a wider .

Hughes' poetry won more awards and helped him earn a scholarship to Lincoln University in Pennsylvania. With the help of novelist and literary Carl Van Vechten, Hughes published his first book of poetry, The Weary Blues, in 1926.

Hughes soon decided that he could make a living as a writer. Over the coming years, he would publish additional volumes of poetry, novels, short stories, newspaper and articles, and plays for Broadway. His prolific output over the course of five decades earned rave reviews from critics and readers alike.

Hughes died in 1967 in New York City. His ashes were buried beneath the entrance of the Arthur Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem. An inscription from his poem "The Negro Speaks of Rivers" marks the spot: "My soul has grown deep like the rivers."

Hughes' home at 20 East 127 th Street in Harlem was given landmark status by the New York City Preservation Commission in 1981. It was also added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. East 127 th Street in Harlem was also renamed "Langston Hughes Place."

Today, Langston Hughes is fondly remembered for his many works that gave colorful insight into the life experiences of African-Americans in America during the 1920s through the 1960s. Hughes is also well-known for his use of rhythms and dialect that spoke powerfully to the common man.

Do you know that place before the street begins? It's where the grass grows soft and white and the sun burns crimson bright. It's where you might even see the moon-bird rest from his flight in the cool peppermint wind.

If you said it's where the ends, you're right! That means you've probably read or heard Shel Silverstein's famous poem Where the Ends a time or two. And today is the perfect day to read it again!

Every April is . Organized by the Academy of American Poets, began in 1996 as a way to encourage the public to experience and in the United States.

Many children around the world learn to love by reading the famous works of Shel Silverstein. Born in Chicago on September 25, 1930, Sheldon "Shel" Silverstein was an American who created and children's books, as well as songs, screenplays, and cartoons.

Shel Silverstein's works have been translated into over 30 languages around the world. His books have also sold more than 20 million copies, making him one of the world's most children's authors.

In addition to collections of , such as Where the Ends and A Light in the Attic, Silverstein is well-known for his most children's , The Giving Tree. Intended to give children a look at life, The Giving Tree continues to be one of the most discussed children's books of all time. It also continues to be listed as one of the children's books of all time.

Think you could continue in Silverstein's footsteps and write or children's books? Sure you could! Silverstein himself began writing when he was only 12 years old. He claims that girls showed no interest in him and he didn't have much ability, so he began to write. Since he wasn't familiar with the styles of any famous poets, he developed his own unique . We're so he did!

Although he didn't write as much in his later years, he did publish Falling Up: Poems and Drawings in 1996. Silverstein passed away a few years later, succumbing to a heart attack in Key West, Florida, on May 10, 1999.

To help celebrate , we leave you with these poetic words of encouragement from Shel Silverstein:

Listen to Mustn'ts, child, listen to the Don'ts. Listen to the Shouldn'ts, the Impossibles, the Won'ts. Listen to the Never Haves, then listen close to me. Anything can happen, child, Anything can be.

Although the rules of slams can vary from location to location, the basic rules are similar across competitions: poets have three minutes to perform an original poem they have written.

They may not use props, costumes or musical instruments. Five judges give scores from 0-10. The high and the low scores are thrown out, and the middle three scores are added together to give poets a possible score range of 0-30.

From nursery rhymes to the latest hip-hop songs, children's lives are filled with rhyme everywhere they look...or read...or listen. Always delightful and sometimes insightful , rhymes make everything from poetry to song just a little bit more fun.

Rhyme refers to the repetition of sounds in two or more words. For example, bat, cat, hat, and rat rhyme. Rhyme can also refer to a short rhyming poem, such as a nursery rhyme.

Rhyme has been around a long, long time. The Shi Jing, a Chinese poetry book, contains the oldest evidence of rhyming. It dates back to the 10th century B.C.

Some scholars believe Irish literature introduced rhyme to Europe in the 7th century. The oldest English rhyming poem is believed to be The Rhyming Poem. Written in Old English (quite different than today's English!), this 87-line poem from the 10th century consists of rhyming (pairs of rhyming lines).

As most authors and know, rhyme creates repeating patterns that are pleasing to the ear. Repeating patterns also often serve as devices, helping listeners remember rhyming passages better than non-rhyming ones.

Regular use of rhyme also helps authors and to structure their works. Readers often find them easier to read because the rhyming patterns clearly mark the ends of lines.

Plus, let's be honest: Rhyme is just plain fun. Take a look at the two examples below. Which do you prefer?
Example One:
Roses are red. Violets are blue. My name is Jed. My favorite flower is you.
Example Two:
Roses are red. Violets are purple. Jed is my name. You're the apple of my eye.

We're guessing you probably liked Example One (with rhyme) better than Example Two (without rhyme). Are we right?

Unfortunately, all of the billions of people who have shaped language over the course of history didn't always keep rhyme in mind. For example, in English, there are many words that don't rhyme with anything.

The four most common nonrhyming words are orange, silver, purple, and month. Although orange does technically rhyme with sporange (a rare shortened version of sporangium ), it isn't a term you'll likely use in conversation -- unless maybe you're a !

There are many other words that don't rhyme. Can you think of any? If you're an author or a poet, what should you do if you want to use one of these words?

Some authors may try to be by rhyming a word like orange with a combination of words, such as door hinge. We all know that's technically cheating, though.

More often, authors will simply find a (a word with the same or meaning) to use instead of the non-rhyming word. For example, orange might be replaced with amber or , depending on the meaning the author wants to express.

Another option is simply to place the nonrhyming word in a different position. Instead of at the end, where it might need to rhyme, an author might place the word at the beginning or in the middle of the sentence.

So, instead of "the orange attracted the bee," a poet might say, "the orange on the tree attracted the bee."
