Haiku v Senryu

Haiku. 575 (Nature)

one spoonful of earth
teeming with tiny creatures
each with huge purpose

Senryu. 575 (Human Foibles)

youths stared down at phones
a full rainbow blessed the sky
alas they missed it

Hi Mick. I'm not so good with haiku and Senryu... but I liked both because of their depth of thought. everything around us is tiny parts of one big mechanism
about mobile phones..yes..by devoting so much time to phones we miss something more important..wise words as always, Mick
warm greetings from cold land , Lily wave hug
