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.

 

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

Then Chaos

I originally wrote this way back in June of 2018 but it still (sadly) fits my mood AND although it may be bending the rules a bit to use an old piece, it (more happily) perfectly fits Linda’s final JusJoJan prompt “chaos”.

Thanks Linda. Sorry I wasn’t more present in January but … well you know. CHAOS.

Fresh Start Begins, Then

Time, In Cahoots with Chaos

Spins Us to the End
