Anni verse ry
Tea and forgiveness
burnt rice in the tea
justified to energise
sadly tastes that way
Today is the anniversary of posting my first verse on this site.
My very first senryu, ‘Tea and forgiveness’ was inspired by reading more traditional Haiku by Carl Setzer and originally posted on his site. Thanks Carl. You are in no way responsible for my errant ways. https://carlsetzer.net/author/questionsall/
Dancing with vans
caravan conga
each tails the other and sways
all over the road
Picture not possible in the circ’s.
Booted
pair of boots, worn down
retired to domestic service
no more holidays
Enlightened
lightness of body
being eased by autumn’s balm
the soft tread of fall
Autumn is my favourite time of year in Melbourne Au.
Yappy birthday deedee
human years: seven-oh
get away with ~ nine dog-years?
woof woof woof woof woof
Autumn alchemy
bronze coloured trees
proudly announce Melbourne’s fall
gold medal season
Meteorological Autumn starts in Australia 1st March
Waiterly wit
guy complains, ‘tough toast’
would sir like a steak-knife
for the smashed avo?
Meteoric fall
not a spy balloon
not chinese weather research
not blown out of sky
Maybe ChatGPT has opinions
I asked ChatGPT for a Haiku lampooning Rupert Murdoch with an alt_truth theme. Maybe it has good lawyers as well as opinions.
Fox in a suit, deceit
Alt-truth, his empire's feat
Minds he bends with might
First day back
passengers snooze
snail like traffic for breakfast
slow day; back to school
Advertising irony
so much off piste stuff
stuck to senryū to sell
not getting the joke
For a limited time only in Napier NZ
flowers balance on plates
riding atop fountain waves
lotus in circus
Hotel review
faded star on ridge
still pretending to be great
but serving pringles
Annual statistical review – ‘My way’
stats, I've had a few
but then again too few to

Let’s do it our way
Saturday inversion
warm summer air
nature’s mid-morning blessing
sweat on my browser
Melbourne Au v’s Seattle USA
Alpha v’s theta snail
hypnosis by snail
not the most common technique
enchantingly slow

Brain Oscillations, Hypnosis, and Hypnotizability
Mark P. Jensen, Tomonori Adachi, and Shahin Hakimian
A longish post that explores the confluence of theta and gamma brainwaves under hypnosis and a possible link between suggestibility and an ability to harness declarative memory sites in the brain. (My, interpretation, not their words).
Seasonal affective order
it’s wild with wattle
hayfever seeded by pollen
mind beautiful fog
Qn. How Does Dee Write Senryū?
I mean why does dd write Senryū?
dee writes senryū
to help muster his spare thoughts
when they're 'good-enough'
A joint posting to coincide with Blake Mouse's 100th.
The DIY cup
spring for renewal
clear clean paint re hang it all
quick money laundering
Melbourne Cup Day is a public holiday in Melbourne Australia. People tend to watch horse-racing, socialise or DIY.
Floral confusion
winter’s been hot wired
blossoms slap dance in the sun
the wind ~~~ it stays cold
Winter in Melbourne, Australia
A reissue with
winter wording and pic
plus bonus haiku
with unseasonal sun
lawn mowers cough into life
boisterous symphony
from lawn mower’s perspective
A trite haiku:
Melbourne’s winter climate
climatic melbourne
days wet wild and woeful
one day wonderful
Autumn in Melbourne
after Easter’s sun
lawn mowers burst into life
no one rests easy
Lazy Sunday
only lollipop guys
slowing and halting traffic
tend to work today
