Sky Above Us

holes we dig in earth 
                                    heats the carbon in the air
                                        sky high above us.

As the moon shines bright at night. The carbon dust twinkles with requite. It rhymes, not sure if makes sense.

Great job Mrs. Anne! Thank you for your reviews and for helping me identify the senryu:) I love to write, but I am not schooled in the sense that I know what I'm writing. It just flows from the heart:D I'm like you, I miss the 10 system, but I'm going to give this a 7. God Bless you always, R.M.

A wonderful haiku to celebrate Earth Day, Anne. Guess you and I would enjoy yoga together. We both stand on our heads! And I'm no youngster. Have a great holiday weekend. Love, Carolyn
