A Frisky Girl [String Senryu]

by Khalid M Darwish   May 16, 2013


She's glad when you say
"You're a moon" though the moon has
only two faces

She's sad when you say
"You're a lizard" for she knows
it's many colors

She's happy to be
like a cat, although they said
cat has seven souls

She smiles when you say
"You're mine" although the mine may
explode anytime

    Wonderful write, Khalid. I love all the different levels of this woman you describe. So creative, and showing her reaction to what the speaker says is just adorable.

    Love this!
