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.

I feel...I wish...


Young girl in the recent Westernport Festival parade at Hastings on the Mornington Peninsula.
Her naval outfit suggests that she represents someone in her family who is connected to nearby HMAS Cerberus.


I feel a child's gaze
Locked into more than fanfare
I wish I could see

Strangers


Westernport Festival is an annual festival celebrating the community of Hastings on Westernport Bay.
Here is the navy band from nearby HMAS Cerberus in the recent 2013 street parade, a major part of the activities.


Strangers on parade
I may not know their faces
But I love their song
