Some of you already know that one of my newest favorite online journals to read is Failed Haiku: A Journal of English Senryu. Edited by Michael Rehling, this journal has taken off in the really large number of readers and downloads. The latest issue is 100 pages of some of the finest haiku/senryu poets writing today. Please be sure to visit and download the journal, which comes in pdf form. You will really delight in these poems and as with all senryu, emotions run from laughter to being touched deeply and seriously.

I was fortunate to have one haiga (which I will post separately) and two senryu published in the April 2016 issue. I am thrilled! These are my offerings:
A Poet in Time 
I like them both, but the second one was unexpected. I hope your all is well with your hearing.

Thanks, Connie. I’m at an age where hearing loss happens. Not fun, but it creates material for poems! 😄

We need to laugh a lot about our shortcomings that have to do with aging.
