Love is very clear
As softly our hearts whisper
Whether far or near

Dear Garysgirl,
A lovely thought that will ride on the breeze of time, to every lover, and rest on the heart to be kissed and forevermore embrassed.
Much enjoyed, but think I am getting a little deaf now a days.

Please come but closer
For you whisper too often
And I need to hear


Sincerely
Rick

this is sweet
and true... love is clear
and I think sometimes with the distance it becomes even more so,
though more painful maybe too.

Enjoyed
Always, Alyssa

Ethel, you knew I'd love this! I read it twice and it filled me with peace. The message is so calming and reassuring. Love truly does make the world go round!--and all of your poetry reflects that!

Warm hugs,
Linda

Okay, this question is probably going to seem dumb, since I am a poet and all, but I guess there is nothing wrong with being dumb every once in a while!

What is senryu, and what is the difference between it and haiku?

Thanks...

Benjamin,
No, that's certainly not dumb. I've only been here since
September and I had never heard of these little
Japanese verses until I came here. I don't know much now, except
that I love to try to write them. I think they're
fun, and since I tend to get long-winded  
I try to put my thoughts into a few words, sometimes.
Anyway, from what I understand, a senryu and a
haiku are the same, with 5-7-5 syllables, except
that a haiku is about nature and a senryu is about
anything, I guess. Both have those three lines.
Hope that helped a little bit.

Thanks for reading and replying. I appreciate it very much...

I'm going to my parents
this afternoon, so I'll see you all when I get back...
