Graceful ocean waves
wash upon this inner soul
clensing all debris

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

His love feels as ocean waves clearing out all the silt...leaving a freshness that only He can...loved this Ellie!

Thank you for this gem, Ellie.  I thought I'd reply to this to let you know that I found this senryu very inspirational somehow.  It sparked the idea in my mind for a villanelle that I wrote today.
Thank you for helping me dust off my pen.
Yours,
~Allan

A wonderful senryu, Ellie  
You used an excellent metaphor to inspire.  I have always viewed the ocean and rain as God's renewal  
This is a perfect senryu!~
