Holidays and Hibernation - Senryu-Haiku Poem Collection
Rinita is a creative writer, with focus on poetry. She delves into several forms including Haiku/Senryu, Sonnets, Free Verse, and Prose.
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.
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
***
