Senryū Stories

~ nature poems, mostly ~

Nine haiku and senryu that carry a nostalgic feeling or subject matter. Written throughout the seasons, each senryu gives me that warm nostalgic feeling personally and I hope you enjoy them as well. please leave your thoughts and comments welcome. thank you for reading.

my collection of senryu and haiku on the subject of the holidays. each poem was written during the winter from late October to early December and has a very different personality. together creating a complex story of family, tradition, personal growth and anxiety of a new year. originally written on my twitter, some of these poems have been changed and modified specifically for this upload to Wattpad. thank you for reading. please like or comment if you enjoyed. I have also included more in depth descriptions of what each haiku is about or the feelings I associate with the story. I have split them up to please the Wattpad gods. May they have mercy on your soul.

Scary haikus with some based on horror films, liminal space/backrooms, as well as nightmares/night terrors I had as a kid. I stick to the strict 5-7-5 syllable structure as I feel it's more fun and challenging for me. Also, when finished, I would love to make these into a book with illustrations. :)

Amalgamated tiny shredded thoughts..

There are only two poems that I have and remember writing in High school. Possibly Freshmen year. Edit: As of 4/19/2022, I have taken an American Literature class in my college. There are about 2-3 weeks left, and I have some new original poems that have stemmed from it. Edit 2: 5/14/2022 All my classes have ended for the semester. I have the summer now, and anything added to this is just random whims of my built-up imagination. Edit 3: 10/14/2022 I'm taking a creative writing class and I have some poems to add from it.

A heartfelt, therapeutic and topical poem about freedom

The poetry of impermanence, following our four-footed friends.

Poetry Book By Stuart Broken Johns

Haiku and senryu Both twins of same womb. One of Nature, one of man.

My take on the ancient poetry forms.

This is a first collection of my micropoems. (Currently I have collected just over 50 of them here, but this is still work in progress and I will add some more in the future!) Some of these poems, but not all, are haiku or senryu-like (although I don't stick to the classic 5-7-5 format, here juxtaposition is more important to me). Some are more like quotes. And some are more poetic than others. But they all have one thing in common: they are short. (The shortest consists of just one word and a punctuation mark after it; maybe you will read it...)

an original collection of senryu and haiku on the subject of death and living a full life. Incorporating elements of graphic death and metaphorical deaths, giving life as a form of loss and how it leads back into itself, please enjoy these cheeky poems on a subject that is hard for all of us to manage. written at all times of the year, I have carefully selected these haiku for this collection. originally posted on my twitter, I have modified some of the poems for this collection on Wattpad. also included in separate chapters are details of my thoughts and meanings behind each poem. thank you for reading and please like or comment if you enjoyed this work.

A collection of haiku, senryu, and other scraps of madness. Humbly penned in Portland, OR.

Random collection of Haiku and Senryū

Senryu - a Haiku about a person instead of nature. I hope you never read these. I hope you do.

This MEDLEY consists of a TEMPOEM, a LIMERICK, a SENRYU, an ACROSTIC and a CINQUAIN. Because of my love for rhyme I decided to compile this collection of different forms on the same theme. I hope you will enjoy these original, unusual poems.
