Haiku (short Japanese poem) has become popular in America, where a meeting of the Haiku Society is held annually. Generally speaking, the completed poem looks better when it is written with the touches of writing-brush letters. So, our study was focused to simulate this presentation with which even people of English-speaking countries can enjoy the poem written in brush touched letters.
Keywords: Haiku, brush character, handwriting.
