Haiku is the only form I actually enjoy doing, and this one which strictly I think is a senryu as haiku does not deal with subjects only nature intended..either way it paints the picture.

Barbara Writes

I agree it is a senyru
But I wrote it for another poetry site that suggested this title for poetry writing thanks again
I wanted to share it here also
