Blah blah blah
Blah blah blah, you say?
Blah blah blah blah blah, I say
Don't procrastinate!

A/N: Blah Blah Blah Day is annually celebrated on 17th April. Your first thought may be "what kind of silly day is that?" Right? That's what I first thought. I was curious about this silliness, so I went on and did some reasearch on the history and meaning of 'blah blah blah' and even found some activities to celebrate the day. I was surprised! My Senryu is an attempt to illustrate this in a fun and concise way that we can all remember.

Love the use of “jaggedly,” so concrete and tangible. “The blazing warm sun” closes the haiku with a sense of peace and feeling the sun on one’s face. The second line is dramatic and it introduces water strongly but it also takes over the peace of the other two lines because of its length and choppiness (although the choppiness echoes the waves). The challenge would be to reduce that watery and airy emotion of the second line to 7 syllables like reducing a perfume to its core essence.
