For Rules, Please Read My Author Notes
after the funeral, the father kept quiet— as did the mum

Mum is short for the chrysanthemum flower
Mum or mom is short for mother
mum means keeping quiet
SENRYU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. Unlike Haiku, senryu is about human nature and doesn't need a season word. It resonates on a deeper level, leaving the reader enlightened and making an insightful connection between the top two lines and the last one, called the SATORI. It's written in 17 syllables OR LESS and three lines.
