Haiku/Senryu / A Humid Eve (Analysis)

Moisture permeates,
Earth, sky, water; all feel heat;
Warmth lasts throughout eve

It gave me a sense of permanence and (who would of thunk it?) the permeability of true heat and the fluctuations and resiliency of energy itself.
I’m not sure if heat was meant literally or symbolically, but it works well either way.
In a way, it seems to be speaking of love. Not necessarily romanticized love, but any form of the emotion be it empathy and understanding or deep care and concern for something other than yourself.
The piece had a very clear peaceful tone akin to coming up out of a short, quiet meditation. I really enjoyed it.

It seems like common sense and in a way, elementary. You followed the rules of Haiku excellently, but I feel that what is contained in the body is not as excellent.

Decent haiku; I mean, I’m usually shit at haikus.  I have so much to say, but the 5-7-5 meter simply isn’t enough!  Anyways…actually, yes, what more can I say but that it’s decent.  It definitely didn’t blow me away in the slightest.

I was a bit confused to think that “moisture permeates water”, but when I thought about it, I suppose water can permeate water.  Although I’d challenge you to find the seams.

The semi-colons threw me a bit too.  I feel like you might have tried to squeeze an extra line in there.  But don’t fret!  If that was your intent, let it roll, my friend!  I’m not a firm believer in the austere strictness with which many write haiku.  It’s about capturing a thought.  Play with the format.  That’s the whole idea.  

“Warmth lasts throughout eve”—and sometimes into the morning as well.

Nice poem.
