the lowly king came
riding on a borrowed colt
over palms and cloaks
now to the youngest
we consign hosanna-ing
the son of david
you must be little
like these to see my kingdom
said the lowly king

Senryu – similar to Haiku? Lovely Palm Sunday poem! Put it in the Tucket! 🙂
Yes, senryu have the same form, but deal with human nature rather than nature nature. I will put them in the Tucket. Thanks.
