a patch of senryu

a patch of senryu

arrival of morning

sun taps on my window

shades closed

reckless abandon

heart on the auction block

sold cheap

apparent swoon

embarrassed red

your stop sign exposed

fine array of birds

supping on bread crumbs

chirp their thanks

wow..i love the imagery here -- the morning sun tapping on the window shades is such a vivid start. And "heart on the auction block" really grabs my attention. It suggests a sense of loss of control and vulnerability. The language is concise and i think that works well for the poem, making it feel more intimate and honest.

A patch of great Senrus. Nothing cures loliness and heartache like nature.
