Gaiku-ryu 三十九

-  Gyoga Chujo ([米人 - 俳句] Haiku/Senryu)

Livin the life

    in the falls of Ohio;

reilly loves this life ✍🏼 

zen pond ripples

after frog leaps in;

hear soft croaking ✍🏼 

zen pond ripples

after leaping frog;

hear soft croaking ✍🏼 

zen pond ripples

after leaping frog;

missing the lilies ✍🏼 

sea turtle strolling 

down street to our house;

divit in its shell ✍🏼 

a struggle so hard

testing our minds daily;

perseverance reigns ✍🏼 

formation of stone

leaving a calmness within;

life can be tough ✍🏼 

clocks ticking tic toc

leading to a dark place;

what will I do, what ✍🏼 

tears just behind

eyes ready to burst forth;

discipline discipline ✍🏼 

long liesurly walks

with the boys sniffing smells; 

two dogs happy puppies  ✍🏼 

falls rainy season

grass doing its winter thing;

let it snow lightly ✍🏼 

masks once worn bandits

now worn byeveryone for safety; 

ride the mask for health ✍🏼 

MASK UP!

masks worn by bandits

now worn by everyone; 

wear it for everyone's health ✍🏼 

RIDE THE NEEDLE

socially accept it

vaccinations for us all; 

get your shots NOW! ✍🏼 

the hum of a road

tires travel miles to go

a long way from  home ✍🏼 

the toad leaps high

olympic  form meets water;

splash, perfect entry ✍🏼 

Roland the idiot

always up Schitt's Creek

laughing our ass off ✍🏼 

don't press one's luck

for it could be the last straw; 

don't cross that line ✍🏼 

Home

the place I call home 

in my rear view mirror;

tear settled on cheek ✍🏼 

sixty years to find

a place called home sweet home;

now in my rearview ✍🏼 

upon my pillow

rests my wary head; 

the falls speak to me ✍🏼 

a Forrest of trees 

cascading falls downtown;

walk morning coffee ✍🏼 

VACCINATED 

ride the needle or

ride the coroner's wagon;

get vaccinated ✍🏼 

time is short and

the road of travel long; 

zephyr train rockies ✍🏼 

the eye of rah 

ancient Egyptian sun god;

open the star gate ✍🏼 

panic stress chem

dump puts mind in brain lock;

don't let-em get you down ✍🏼 

the tribe is all

important to its survival; 

beat downs apply to all ✍🏼 

off world new life

replicant what's human; 

time for retirement ✍🏼 

a dogs life 

is a good life;

to our betterment  ✍🏼 

quiet of night 

darkness ensues swiftly;

peaceful moment ✍🏼 

driving back roads

to the destination; 

the one I choose today ✍🏼 

dark dilapidated 

dirty tall building;

time to die ✍🏼 

time experienced

a collection of moments:

like tears in rain ✍🏼 

Epigram: a short, often satirical poem dealing concisely with a single subject and usually ending with a witty or ingenious turn of thought. Is this an English definition of Senryu?

don't have a good day 

have a greeat day;

thin blue line on duty ✍🏼 

thinking too much

can be dangerous to sanity; 

careful what you wish for  ✍🏼 

the art room where

creativity breathes deep; 

birth of creativity ✍🏼 

the art room where

creativity breathes deep; 

birth of creativity ✍🏼 

time continues

without regard to itseffects; 

long live the dead king 👑 ✍🏼 

Iowa has everything 

especially angels; 

michael's got your back ✍🏼
