On World Poetry Day, we are proud to bring you, our very own in-house poets and poetesses, who blew our minds with their incredible haikus.
For the uninitiated, a haiku is a type of short-form poetry, originating in Japan. Known for the simplicity and directness of expression, these poems are usually three lines long. And they often focus on images of nature. Sounds simple right?
But wait till you read some of the haikus that BYJUites penned for our Haiku Poetry Contest. Packed with powerful imageries, the winning entries will make you pause and think!

Sard hawa ke jhokon ka, shakhon se guzarna zaroori hai
Har roz naye suraj ka phadon se ubharna zaroori hai
Iss neele aasman me unn safed badlon ka bikharna zaroori hai.

Bidushi took a left turn from journalism and landed up in the corporate world. She is a foodie and considers eating good food amongst the greatest joys of life. Keen on travelling and exploring new places, Bidushi has spent the last four years of her life in three different Indian cities. But she has also learned that her bedroom is her happy place. Screens relax her greatly — whether it's watching a movie or a TV show or reading a riveting bestseller on her e-reader. A cheerful person, she prides herself on making friends easily. When not working, Bidushi can be found spending time with her parents, talking to her friends over a call, or browsing the internet for that one lipstick!
