~WOE'S SONG SENRYU~

5-7-5


Prisoner of woe
lonely whispers of love lost
all alone am I

'woe to the sad ones
who cry only of
their own pain
and guilt.

this is not to you,
it was just a little spot i wrote along time ago, about a crazy love triangle,
your poem reminded me of it,
though,
i do like you short and simple spell,
they are usually my most favorite.
thank you for your words,
kindly,
redheart angrybraids

Woe's Song Senyru

Howling to the sky~
Stars wink ignore earnest plea~
Full of woe am I

Melissa,

you probably know how much i enjoy your haiku/senyru....but moi think you have outdone yourself this time....this is in MHO the best senyru i have read from you....lovely three lttle lines that capture the agony of unrequited love....NICE!

the above senyru is for you since i like this so much...i must rack my brains to show my appreciation

Thank you Redheart Angrybraids and Kaile, as always it's much appreciated    Usually, I try to write senryus that are uplifting and give hope or reveal some universal truth, but, I am in a dark place right now and this is the result.

Take care,
Melissa Honeybee
