Holidays and Hibernation - Senryu-Haiku Poem Collection
Background
This combination of Haiku and Senryu is about how someone, who hibernates alone during the holidays now, reminisces about the warm family memories of childhood.
Year-End Holidays
Haiku-Senryu
Jingly Christmas bell
Santa sang and stockings hung
Presents, fairy tales
***
Chaste and clean white snow
Serene view from our window
Wind chills below ten
***
Cake in the oven
Mama’s famous roast chicken
Sister’s yummy pie
***
Pleasant mild sunshine
Golden rays on the dry porch
Cold breeze settling in
***
Family skit on stage
Fire burning warm and bright
The actors sizzle
***
All but memories
Of a merry yesteryear
The night falls heavy
***
Fire to candles
Pure snow to nerve-wrecking chill
Cold food on a plate
***
