modern senryu
A chapter in the book One Thousand Cranes
Criss-cross Roads
by Gypsy Blue Rose
Para Papa
criss-cross roads
over fields of forget-me-nots — painful old scars |
Forget-me-not is a kind of flower
Senryu is similar to Haiku but it focuses on human nature, psychology, and mind.
Senryu can make use of poetic devices such as simile, personification, and
metaphor. It can also employ puns, parody and satire. Unlike haiku, senryu are not reliant on a seasonal reference, but they DO occasionally use them.
Senryu can be humorous but many express the misfortunes, the hardships and woe of humanity.
Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem.
