Have you ever made a connection despite adversity, or at a time when emotional warmth is especially cherished?
A connection based on Jung's concept of synchronicity:
Occurrences that are linked by meaning rather than cause?
A fleetingly moment maybe in a challenging time, where meaningful contact that seems both accidental and profound.
Is needed?
A brief pause with a stranger that felt overflowing with meaning?
An unsaid unity formed in a profound silence between new or old friends?
Or just someone appearing into your life at the right time that almost felt like fate?
So, have you ever felt this sensation with someone?
Title.
Synchronicity
(A lone voice whispers)
We came together
Like two autumn leaves touching
In winter's weather

Senryu, like haiku, has three lines with 17 or, but unlike haiku, which focuses on nature, senryu tends to center on human nature.
In human nature,
hearing and listening are
not the same thing:-
You can hear said words
but can not respond to them,
if not listening:-
Ancestrally said,
you not listening is bad;
not caring, is worse:-
Being a wise one,
do not just hear what is said;
understand also:-
SLEEPING AND WAKING
We sleep in God's peace,
Why wake up in Satin's wars?
Let's wake how we sleep!
They scream war for peace,
Not peace for loving kindness;
Human nature stoked:-
War bombing for peace,
No thoughts of building for love;
Wintering hate still dropping:-
Bombs drop like fall leaves,
Busting storms keep blood gushing;
Healing spring postponed.
Kids screaming with joy,
toy guns fired at each other.
gifts from their parents:-
Teenagers shooting,
taking theirs' and others' lives;
firing parent’s gun:-
AI shooting games,
children joyfully playing;
parents happy:-
Murdering should not
be a gameplay for kids; let’s
check human nature:-
A GODCHILD OF NATURE
(A Senryu Quartet)
Grown from human seed,
I am a child of nature;
A sunbeam of delight:-
Gracefully rooted…
Stemmed peaceful human nature…
Serene joy blooming…
My bright spirit glows,
Nature’s sunshine mirroring;
God’s love reflected:-
Sunflowering grace—
With divine labors of love,
I’m God’s gardener:-
They scream war for peace,
Not peace for loving-kindness;
Paradoxed nature:
War bombing for peace,
Love building up from debris;
Peace's nature melts war:-
Thus be our nature,
Faith and love will conquer war;
World peace will soon spring:-
"Crap," number 2 stool
I gotta go, discharge waste
excrement matters

Boast not of money;
It elevates to destroy
Our human nature.
One disease by name,
Merged in the human nature
Kills the life with roots

basking in meekness
false humility does lurk
my arrogance glows…
proud* human nature
grips heart against true worship
God, please forgive me.
*Proverbs 28:25 He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.
