Chocolate  Senryu Troiku Poetry

chocolate loved by most
a treat rich tasty mouth full
a special occasion

a treat rich tasty mouth full
how did the middle get there
men caught in the act

a special occasion
but who’s fingers touch it last
was it yours or mine

Note: For the Troiku you separate the three lines. Every line becomes the first line of the three new haiku. (Line 1 for haiku 1; line 2 for haiku 2; line 3 for haiku 3). It does not follow normal 5/7/5 rules as it cannot!

In this case, it is a Senryu Poem, not Haiku Poetry

What is Senryu poetry

Senryu is usually written in the present tense and only references to some aspect of human nature or emotions. They possess no references to the natural world and thus stand out from nature/seasonal haiku.
