“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

return...
a view of the crowds at the recent annual Kite Festival on the Rosebud foreshore...
sun blessed skies
flying souls return on
willing winds

my days may be grey...
my days may be grey
I may be shrouded in mist
but somewhere sun shines
NOTE:
The photo above was taken on the Dromana foreshore track - December 2011.
Summer was just beginning.

Taco
Kites with character
Like prayer flags on lengthy strings
Riding fickle winds

Heath
Heath on the Rosebud foreshore by Port Phillip Bay on the Mornington Peninsula
Ravaged by salt winds
Deprived of gifts from rich soils
Blinded by hot suns
Stands up to hot suns
Clings to the hope of pale sands
Heath on the foreshore
For more information on heaths in my world of Victoria, Australia, see HERE!
