呉昭新の俳句:Haiku by Chiau-Shin NGO in Taiwan

On April 3, 2019, Mr. Chiau-Shin NGO, a Facebook friend of mine, kindly contributed his haiku to Akita International Haiku Network with his photo and his brief bio.

 

 

俳句歴:

 

1930生まれ。

本名:呉 昭新 (Chiau-Shin NGO); 

俳号:呉 瞈望; 日本語:おーぼー真悟;

 

2008年(78歳)に初めて句会入会と作句。

主宰が体調を壊していたゆえ、また小生自身の聴力障害のためほとんど自我流で作句,定型、自由律、有季、無季、花鳥諷詠、日常生活、論理、政治、諺、倫理などまた川柳に近い俳柳などすべてを吟詠しております。作句の言語は日本語、華語、台湾語、英語の四つの言語を使っております。定型俳句は日本の575定型に対応して漢語の343定型で詠んでいます。2016に退会し自分でネット句会を立ち上げる一方、ネット上の日本の俳句会にも投句をしております。俳句電子書(自製で粗雑ですが)をこの二年で7冊出版しております、無料でダウンロード出来ます、コンピューターでダウンロードして下さい,サイズが大きいので携帯では無理です。

現在,自分創設で管理しているネット句会は四グループ(世界のすべての言語を受け付けております)、入り口サイトは

自我流ですが日本の俳句の経典は殆ど目を通しています。随筆の参考文献に載っています。

 

Personal haiku history:

 

Born in 1930.

Taiwanese.

Real name: Chiau-Shin NGO(呉 昭新)

Haiku pen-name: Chia-Shin Ngo or OoBooShingo in English; オーボー真悟: in Japanese;瞈望 (NgBang): in Taiwanese.

 

In 2008 (78 years old) joined a haiku association and began the haiku composition for the first time.

Because of the master’s physical condition, and also due to the hearing impairment of myself, I compose haiku and tanka in my own way. Fixed form, free verse, with kigo (seasonal word; 有季), muki ( without the seasonal word;無季), kacyouhuuei (the beauties of nature; 花鳥諷詠), daily life, logic, politics, ethics, etc. I have also composed the hairyu (the haiku likes both haiku and senryu;俳柳) and the short poem. There are four languages ​​for writing: Japanese, Chinese, Taiwanese, and English.

I compose the fixed form haiku by 343 fixed forms of the Chinese word to cope with 575 Japanese fixed forms.

While leaving the group in 2016 and setting up net poem groups of my own, I also post my haiku works on other haiku groups on the net. I have published seven haiku electronic books in the past two years, which can be downloaded free of charge, please download them on a computer, because they are too large for mobile.

Currently, I have created and managed four my own online haiku and tanka groups (we accept all languages ​​of the world), the entrance site is

and

In addition, the World Union of Poets appointed me as the administrators of its subdivision sites in various regions of the world (Taiwan, China, Turkey, Phoenix (USA), Deutschland, Seychelles islands, etc.). We welcome your visit. Please apply for membership first.

My haiku and tanka works are composed according to my own style. I have taken a look over most of the classics or scriptures of Japanese haiku and reviews of modern haiku on the net. There are so many that they will not be listed here, and you can find them listed on the references of most of my essays on the haiku.
