Sneeze

Sneeze repeatedly
Sound echoes through the hollow..
Ragweed now blossoms  

Is it a Haiku or Senryu?

I almost feel like saying, "God bless you!"-- ahh sneezes brought on by allergies can be so frustrating... I hope all is well with you Sara and I read your blog about Jack's dad-- please let him know that he is in my prayers. Thanks for letting us know about him... have a good week!

I think this can be considered haiku since haiku are nature but also can have human elements!! I really LIKES it too.

This is a wonderful Haiku Sara, I believe you can call it that! From my limited knowledge of Haiku I believe this poem qualifies, but if you want to know for sure as Debbie (Guzzi)! I really enjoyed this wondrously portrayed write, full of glorious sneezes...which I get plenty of from those darn Ragweed! This is a stupendous piece my friend, Great Work!!
