Paula~ Funny how so much is said in so little a space. Wonderful Senryu. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

simply wonderful, what a fresh feeling I got reading this. Help you grow as a writer, ah, yes, I too am growing. I've been writing and studying and I see you have a flair for imagination. here is what I would humbly suggest. I dreamt within my mind I was walking in fresh spring rain holding hands with you. I simply tried an active voice approach deleted "the" before rain for simplicity just a suggestion, I always hold my breath before critique unless I know someone is open to it. The final word is always the authors!!!!!!! Emily |

this type of poetry is not a haiku, right? But something similar? A beautiful image this brings! |

WhtDove...Im glad I could bring a smile to your face...thanks Karilea...lol sweetie you are welcome Marsha...you are ever welcome here dearest sister of my heart...thank you Marge...sometimes saying less says it all...thank you sweet lady Sandra...thank you so much Sven...Im glad to bring back happy memories for you Emily...I dont mind critiques...this particular style is called a senryu and it has a specific syllable count per line...in this case 5-7-5...so although the way you placed you words works...it doesnt fit the syllable count... Nathan...always happy to share with you sweet friend Just A Woman...its called a senryu...it uses the same syllable count as a haiku...it can just be about anything...not just nature like a haiku...thank you Daniel...would you like to walk with me? |
