I was thinking of writing a Haiku tanka or senryu As I did I thought on a conversation I'd had with Andrea D.. On Haiku being about plants trees and Animals tanka more on humor and people And senryu and so on..' Then I realised all are part Of the same created reality human & mammals share blood skin Scales teeth etc.' And all die If they get too de-hydrated all seed all Die.' only if I draw a line between People and plants and mammals Could I be so constrained.' Also Haiku can be 5 7 7 or 5 7 5 in Syllables I am all for styles But it seems to go from reality to Insanity at times.'

Sometimes we cloud the bright blue sky with trying to be too specific instead of telling it like it is. We just need to let everyone write from their hearts what they have to share, in their own style, form, or way. Bless you for sharing your thoughts, your way. Bill

Hey Bill, no disparaging of other writers here intended, forms are There, and we can learn much by writing within their remits However when the explanation of the form tells you what it is And that overlaps with what is.. I consider that it's better to allow Flex even skyscrapers can flex.. Maybe that even preserves their Kinetics..? But I digress.' Great to read your comment.'

WE are nature and so are animals, so my opinion is that haiku can include pretty much everything. In a broad sense, I think they can, but senryu was invented for sole purpose of being more philosophical or humorous (focusing on human nature). Would love to see one from you! Regarding your contest, I am pretty sure you can change the final date of it, just so it's after one month from when you first started your contest. I hope to work on a poem for you soon.
