Pear Tree Haiku for fjames Picture Uploaded

IF YOU GO AND CLICK ON POST A COMMENT the whole tree shows up its awesome.. My little pear tree.. I was just mowing my grass.( 3 acres) I notices my little pear tree. its only 4 feet tall 4 inches at the base 2 lonely branches coming off the base and little twigs coming off that the the branches are like 2 inches around at the most.. I almost cut it down a few years back because i was sure it was dead.. I just didn't have the heart.. It is so loaded with pears at least 50 that is bent completely over touching the ground.. I have been so overwhelmed with my own grief and locked inside my depression I never noticed or I would have found a wedge for the 2 lonely branches.. Nature never ceases to amaze me.

Lovers Senryu

Lovers (Senryu)

Definition of Senryu 1) A Japanese poem similar in structure to haiku, but more concerned with human nature, and is often humorous or satiric -- usually in three lines of seventeen kana. 2) A foreign adaptation of 1, usually written in three lines of 17 syllables or LESS. Again, unless you are Japanese, have been writing Japanese, or speak fluent Japanese, you will be writing definition #2. A good structure for beginning senryu poets is: setting subject and action (on two lines)
