An archaeologist felt faint in the desert's summer heat. A nearby cave seemed tempting. Inside, the darkness soothed his burning body, but his spirit felt wary. In the cave's womb, a light - a winking, mischievous light. He hedged forward ... and so did the light. #smolfic— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) October 5, 2018
“Giddy grasshopper/ Take care...do not leap and crush/ These pearls of dewdrop” ― Issa(1763-1827) - Japanese Haiku
Haiku + Senryu
Haiku is a seasonal, reverent celebration of a subject (nature or people) trying to make a feeling.
Senryu tends to have a victim and may be humorous or irreverant trying to make a point.
- paraphrased from Michael Dylan Welch's Graceguts
