Poeminister,

Well said.  Your message is loud and clear.

It always amazes me, the vast messages and feelings that can be described in such short poems. You are very talented, my friend. Keep up the great work!

So much wisdom in so few words is a rare thing indeed.  I am not familiar with the form, but the poetic execution here was quietly amazing.

Marge--Thank you for your comment and stopping by to read. Always appreciated.

JM--Glad you liked.  Thanks for your comment.

LoveBug--Thanks for the kind comment.

SkyFyre--Nice to meet, thank you much for your words...as far as the form Senryu is just a japanese form of poem-writing in threelines, 5 syllables on first line,  7 on the second, and 5 again on the third without any rhyme and can basically be about anything opposed to being just about nature like Haikus..in a nutshell.. Hope that i've explained it ok...thanks again for your comment...

Kaile--Your words are always kind and encouraging.  Thanks for stopping by to read.

Startime and Denise--Thank you both for your comments and for reading.

Poeminister
