{{Main|Kigo}}
A haiku traditionally contains a ''[[kigo]]'', a word or phrase that symbolizes or implies the season of the poem and is drawn from a ''[[saijiki]]'', an extensive but prescriptive list of such words. Season words evoke images that are associated with the same time of year, making it a kind of [[Ezra Pound's Three Kinds of Poetry|logopoeia]].<ref name="haiku seasons">{{cite book |last=Higginson |first=William J. |author-link=William J.
