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

arithmetic...


Heat wave stressed leaves that fell recently on my verandah when the late afternoon winds began...
I arranged them in such a way that they appeared like a beautiful flower...


scrambled seasons
bewilder
yoked arithmetic

angel...




gift from a friend
little knowing she would be
the seashell angel

sea winds lift her wings
shells whisper her haiku
waves cradle her soul
