Katakana Literary Work Final
みなさん、
This is the final Katakana Literary Work Post by me (at least for now). So I will combine the first two posts that I have together and then add another poem at the end.
Senryuu 川柳(せんりゅう)is a short poem.
It consists of 3 lines with 17 (5-7-5) or more/fewer morae.
Example from wikipedia,
The subject of senryuu is based on human nature, usually ironic or satirical.

This is the first senryuu that I composed.

- どろぼうを
- とらえてみれば
- わがこなり
- The robber,
- when I catch,
- my own son

Senryuu is similar to haiku はいく。 Nevertheless, haiku have seasonal expressions which senryuu don't have to have.

This is the first senryuu that I composed.
おはようを Good Morning
はなしていると We are saying it and
ハヤクする Saying it fast
さんぽしてる We are walking
ハヤクしている Walking fast
おはようを Good morning
はなしてる We are saying good morning
あるくとはなす We are walking and saying
とてもハヤク really fast
This is inspired by people who have to rush to class in the morning or during the 10 minute class-change time. They walk pass someone they know and say hi to them, but they just keep walking and do not talk to each other any more than that. That greeting can be somewhat regarded as shallow and meaningless. Also, I used katakana in はやく meaning "fast" (adv) to emphasize the word. I'm not sure whether I did it right, but I'm really like it anyway.
This one is はいく inspired by Early Morning Rain by Peter Paul and Mary
雨(あめ)ふってる It's raining
くらくとしずかに darkly and silently
はやい雨 early morning rain
雨ふってる The rain is falling
行(い)くところない with no place to go
シツレンシマス with a broken heart
This one I emphasized the broken heart.
雨(あめ)ふってる It's raining
くらくとしずかに darkly and silently
はやい雨 early morning rain
雨ふってる The rain is falling
行(い)くところない with no place to go
シツレンシマス with a broken heart
This one I emphasized the broken heart.
There is the new 川柳 that I just composed. This one is inspired by the song Home by Michael Buble.
パリとローマ Paris and Rome
一人(ひとり)いる ウチ I live by myself. Home
帰りたい is where I want to go.
そとうれしい Outside, happy
人(ひと)たくさんいる people there are.
さびしくて、 I feel alone and
かなしいウチ sad. Home.
とても帰りたい I want to go home.
なく一人(ひとり) I cry alone.
I used パリ, ローマ as Paris and Rome as I'm supposed to (borrowed words). But I also use ウチ as home instead of うち or 家 to emphasize.
Actually, the song itself focuses more on the reunification part when the singer gets back home so it has quite a happy ending. But in this poem, we focus on the author's longing to go back home.
じゃあ、 詩(うた poem)が 3つ ありますが、 何が 一番 いいと思いますか?

アドミッション(Admission 2013 film)
ライフ・オブ・パイ (Life of Pi)
オズ はじまりの戦い (Oz: the Great and Powerful)
Hi everybody,
This week, I watched three movies. 2 days ago, I watched Oz: the Great and Powerful in New York City. Yesterday, I watched Life of Pi in my dorm. Today, I watched Admission at Garden Theater. Among those three movies, I like Life of Pi the most. Life of Pi is very famous and the tiger in it is really beautiful and seem real. Admission is about Princeton, making the film better :D.
What is y'all favorite movie?

みなさん、春休みはどうですか?
Hi everybody,
I came to Columbia University today (Monday) to meet my friends from Johns Hopkins and my friends at Columbia. I will return to Princeton on Wednesday. It took about an hour and a half from Princeton to NYC by train. I went to Korean town with my friends to have Korean food. It was pretty expensive but really good. Then, we went to bakery. I had bubble tea and a little bread. They are really delicious. We went shopping a bit. I bought 4 pairs of socks, green and red polo shirts.
It looked like it's going to rain in the morning but then in the evening it snowed. It was really pretty like in the movie. I took photos too. Take a look.
How is everyone break?
