RENGA is a unique collaborative Japanese style of poetry in which multiple poets write alternating stanzas. It was created in Japan in the 13th century. Renga requires a good understanding of the form. If you need help do not hesitate to contact me.. for more information about Renga poems click here

HOW TO WRITE A RENGA POEM:

It's very important to LINK your Renga stanza to the previous stanza keeping the same theme and season of the year. to check out the Renga Book click here

FIRST POET - starts with a three-line haiku 5/7/5 that sets the theme and season of the year.

THE SECOND POET writes a 7/7 stanza that links to the previous 5/7/5 chapter with the same theme and season of the year.

This pattern (5/7/5 stanza followed by a 7/7 stanza) continues on and on. Some renga books can be 100 stanzas or more.
