RE: Mizu No Oto - Every Image Has Its Haiku - Edition #27 (English)

in #haikucontest • 5 years ago

I enjoyed this 5-7-5 haiku at the end of @cyemela haibun (which I have to admit I do not know what that is). The story and the haiku along with the photo prompt amused me. It has many of the characteristics of a wondrous haiku (kigo, sabi, and mono no aware among them), but shiori is the predominant characteristic for me - I laughed out loud when I read it and envisioned the characters trying to stage a futile little party in that boat. Summer!

Summer hope, water -
The tea trip must be postponed,
not a party boat.

    Thanks. A haibun is another ancient form of Japanese writing that combines prose with haiku.

      Thank you and well done then! I got a much clearer picture from the Haiku having read the prose.
