Notes About The Poem

One Small Indiscretion

One wild happy-go-lucky senryu
Was caught impersonating a haiku
They levied no fines
But removed two lines
Now she's a stick-in-the-mud monoku

Clever doesn't begin to describe that mind of yours, just read about 30 or more from up in smoke and manyI made no comment so could keep reading.

Jennifer, thanks for stopping by and bringing some encouragement my way. I just read your poem “The Bug Bites Again,” and I must say I was very impressed with your outings to the Kruger Park! Jennifer the Adventurer! ~Mark :)

Enjoyed very much Mark - to add an unapproved line - so clever and painful and true. You know how to have fun with it all.

Ha! Love it - love the merging of forms and the wit invested ... not a huge Limerick guy, but I love them when some thought has been put into it - excellent, my friend! :-D
