__It seems from what I've seen of late, that I should no longer define the differences between haiku and senryu as I view them; open windows.

rain fall

An ode
A sonnet or
A limerick
A poem by any other name is still a poem.

An owl
A raven or
An eagle
A bird by any other name is still a poem.

"Senryu" is a term that has never caught on in the U.S., and we probably don't need it. We can speak of comic haiku, satirical haiku, and so on.

__Welcome Jen, I value your comments. M., that 'open window' is... an overall invitation to opinionate; your verse is so well understood and appreciated. My thanks to you both_! _m

I'm beginning to think that 'senryu' and 'haiku' are false distinctions....

Magyar said...

I thank you Juliet_!
__With exception to the -sound points- that language, translatable syllable count, I will remain within that historic realm of senryu/haiku definitions... fool that I am. Smiles_!
