On to dumb Monday.
There you go again.
Beating up on poor Monday.
She can't catch a break.
Should I be sorry?
No, Monday is sucking *kitten*.
It will be done soon.
Embracing Monday.
That may be a start. Right now;
Try accepting her.
Hey, I remember...
Someone hating on Monday
Not too long ago
Your friend, the poet?

haiku is missing
snatched away by senryu
revival is nigh This is SENRYU
THESE are Haiku
cold dark weeping cloak
blankets every hill and dale
winter creeps nearer
scrambling fingers stretched
reaching after fleeing leaves
storm torn dancing gold
golden fluttering
settles to fills ev'ry hollow
along woodland paths
NB: Point of interest.
Haiku subject matter should be Nature.
The form is called Senryu when the subject is something other than Nature.
when daylight arrives
spirit wakes to greet the day
body murmurs no
duvet days appeal
turns industry slattern
with alacrity0 -
Tuesday came and gone
No plague of frogs and squid yet
Moving forward now!!0 -
