True story.

Senryu or Haiku? And what's Tanka?

After you read the link, you'll understand why I often think I should have named this blog "Sorta Kinda Senryu." But, as is obvious from reading my earlier writing, I didn't really know what Haiku were, let alone Senryu. And I'd heard of Tanka before, but never tried to write one. I've only written a couple. Here's one I wrote this morning.

Blackberry flowers, 
white & delicate in the sun; 
milk thistle purple 
fringe on the green, thorny stalk; 
nothing ripe yet.

Rushing Thought River

Rushing Thought River --
sometimes I've lain down in it,
sometimes just a toe.

Muddled puddle thoughts...

Muddled puddle thoughts --

brain of oatmeal--
nothing sharp here!

Joy of being fat...

Joy of being fat:
cat lies on my hip, happy
to find padding there.

Burnt cake --
the middle's still good --
sort of.
