Is this Haiku? Do I give a toss!

Alone I sit
Pencil in hand
I ponder long
On secrets grand.

dear Alex,

I don't know if it is senryu or not, but it is good. (haiku is about nature)

*hugs, Cat

Hello Cat

Don't think its quite senryu but then, do I care ? Alex

Thank you for your comments. I did read about the various forms but then a mist descended and I began lose the will to live. I'll stick to writing what comes to mind just as it comes and not worry about form. Alex

Hello Kat

YES. Just what I wanted to hear. Alex

I say...

...it depends if you give a crap about standards.

Hello Thomas

I won't say I don't give a crap about standards but...... Alex

Well...

...there's little to argue with reasoning like that, but...

Dear Alex

This is a great poem. It is a small short observation of what you write about, "secrets Grand". In poetry aren't we all seeking that same insight.
