Today I found out that my blog Haiku for Westminster is in fact a verse form known as senryu. Although haiku and senryu are identical in form (5-7-5), they are very different in content; haiku is somewhat austere and tends to deal with the Natural World, for example seasons. In contrast senryu are more relaxed and contain wry observations on everyday occurrences and the human condition.
