随筆

Written on 2023-08-31 by Caleb

As the title suggests, this is just a batch of various writings (poems, in this case) that I wrote as part of a class focused on writing 俳句 (haiku) and 川柳 (senryu, a 17-mora humurous poem). I really enjoyed writing the last one, 毎日, which captures a scenario that I unfortunately continue to encounter to this day.

夏の庭

花火見に
光の花咲き
空の庭

太陽よりあつい

たこ焼きめ
2時間待って
火傷した

彩りじき

緋と黄を
坂に塗る時機
もみじ時季

毎日

レジに立ち
小声で聞かれ
聞こえない
次に大声
あ、「袋いる?」
