Senryu 1
Clouds running leeward
Far; stretched to the horizon
Freedom for the eyes
Cherry blossoms fall
Softly upon the water
Flowing through the soul
Willow dappled light
Dances lightly on my soul
Always in my hart
Nightly you appear
To masquerade as moonlight
deceit in your stealth

Hi Keith, thanks for your comments, I’m glad your imagination has been stimulated by these haiku. Much appreciate you saying so.
Hi Steve, these are four separate poems but the the first three where written at the same time, so I think there is some kind of link between them. Perhaps through the thoughts or emotions I had at the time.
Thanks for pointing out the difference between haiku and Senryu, much appreciated.
Will look up the poetry of Nick Virgillo. Thanks for your time and encouragement.
Thank you Randy, mona and Damon for the likes.
All the best des
