Contemporary Senryu (for rules ck author notes)
A chapter in the book 2024 Gypsy's Haiku
Mom's Funeral
by Gypsy Blue Rose
skeleton flowers are real
Mom’s funeral, absent son sent— invisible skeleton flowers |
Ghost-like "SKELETON FLOWERS" turn transparent when it rains.
CONTEMPORARY 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 two, called the SATORI. It's written in 1 to 4 lines and 17 syllables OR LESS.
