What is a 'Yarakashi Senryu' (Blunder Haiku)?
This is the first project by Fu-san, who always praises my senryu.
Turn your blunders into senryu!
#YarakashiSenryu
Please let me participate.
Oh, I already have a feeling this will be so much fun.
Well then, I would like to compose three poems.
Starting with the first one.
Pressed the blue button, then turned pale
In this cold weather, I intended to buy a hot drink from a vending machine, but I accidentally pressed the blue button.
A cold canned coffee in my numb hands.
I couldn't help but turn as pale as the button itself.
Ah. I really messed up.
The second poem...
Postage fee
Insufficient funds, it returns to me
With postage prices changing every few years, how much is it exactly now?
I stuck on some stamps I had in stock and sent it off, but it came back to my mailbox with a notice saying the postage was insufficient.
Am I the only one who makes this kind of blunder?
Even the stamp sheets I won with New Year's postcards from a few years ago are unreliable these days.
Finally, the third poem.
Bulk buying
Eating it all as the deadline is nearing
This time, I tried to be conscious of rhyme.
I bought in bulk thinking it was cheap, but ended up regretting it when I had to rush to eat it all before the expiration date.
Doesn't that ever happen to you?
I would be happy if my blunders
could bring a smile to someone's face.
Thank you for reading.
Thank you for the happiness.
I am grateful for the connection we have made.
