Terry Flood Poet Senryu

Diamond Smile

Walking on hailstones
I see you: a smile, a ‘Hi’
Dancing on diamonds


7 February 2021
Contest: Valentine’s Senryu
Sponsor: Tania Kitchin

[My own poetic license sees ‘Diamonds’ as two syllables.]

I’m usually a rhyme and Limerick kinda guy so it’s nice to get the nod for something not my norm. Thanks again, Terry

Linda Terry Flood February 10, 2021 at 11:38 AM Thanks Linda. First and third lines just jumped into my head... but, boy, did I struggle with the middle line? Glad it worked for you. Terry
