Fall Senryu & Summer Senryu - Published by: Leaves of Ink

Fall: Senryu

 

sun glitters

diamond dust on clouds

caramel on apples

 

half cloudy

sun skitters in the grass

and dives down a burrow

 

wind sweeps 

clouds heap 

blue floods through

 

crescent moon rises

tapestry needle

threads dusk

 

crickets sing 

corn tassels and tobacco

evening gold

 

distant lightning

ignites the tapestry ~

a silent movie plays

 

~

 

Summer: Senryu

 

yellow-black web weaver

carnivore hunts

I pick her tomato

 

goldfinch eats

petals of sunflower drop

loves me - loves me not

 

the walls and roof shake

Crepe Myrtle bends under the weight

of the downpour

 

fireflies

between moon-glow

summer tree stars

 

night secret

silver twins echo

moon flower

 

faint blush of sky

cicada shrill

cat moon grins sideways
