Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

SenHai-Saturday (the moon and my mind)

the moon turns its face

and the sea mourns salty tears

as summer burns hot

 

harmonic breaking

turmoil as a design flaw

my chaotic mind

 Thanks to Susi for the great prompt to create one senryu and one haiku to accompany the image (above). As a remember, a traditional haiku describes nature or a season, while a senryu focuses on human nature and emotions.

  1. The moon, the sea and the summer are truly in harmony in your first piece, and the second is a great comparison to the human state at times! Brilliant, Tina! So happy that you joined in. 🙂 Will you be participating in The Short of It this submission cycle?
