Haiku's & Senryu's (not all 5/7/5's)
- HAIKU * - (naturalistic)
#1
echoes from Eagles
miraculous winter courtship
sojourner's tango
#2
dolphins serenade
dance blue moon's timely tango
sashaying the waves
#3
synchronize swallows
swiftly skim dawn's surface dew
aerial fishtails
#4
the Penguins plunge
in frigid icy waters
delicate divers
#5
peaceful mindfulness
summer pond's fish splash midair
ripples soft moonshine
- SENRYU * (humanistic)
#6
besides bad critiques,
a poet's greatest fear is,
a muse wanting cash
#7
poets like Wall Street
seem to hate their ups and downs
when their poem's crash
#8
an innocent child's
voice may be understood when
all screams subside
#9
loves indelible
when child's innocent heart
is humbly welcomed
#10
an innocent tear
trickles down child's charming cheek
Gets anything...!
