Poetry for me is a way of living, it comes out of nowhere and I have to write it down. How I write, what I write, I decide. I am not asking you to be judgemental. I am gifted with the ability to see beyond the obvious.

Senryu: Ruing it?
I tried a senryu after very long. Hope it works!
ideal resolves very impressive show bitter to swallow
a bitter pill to swallow indeed. good lines these. :)
ReplyDeletei like this form alot. :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice, enjoyed the subtlety the form demands - I sure think you nailed it!
ReplyDeleteNicely done.
ReplyDeleteI think you were very successful in the senryu. It is a new look at an old phase.
ReplyDeleteI agree with all your previous visitors. Very well done and oh so real. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteJust a reminder that your OSI prompt, spectacles, is up next week. Please let me know if this works for you!
ReplyDeletebittersweet.
ReplyDeleteNo matter how hard I try, I have great difficulty writing these forms. In this I'm afraid I lack the resolve.
ReplyDeleteDelightful indeed.
ReplyDeleteThis type is new to me and it is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHey Gautami, I like it! That's why I don't do New Years' Resolutions. I like sugar pills.
ReplyDelete..
Yes, ideals often look great on paper, and turn into nightmares when implemented-this was the twentieth century.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this.
New Year's Day
ReplyDeleteI can't break the habit
of resolution
Oh, it works!! Very well...
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteBeing a list maker, I have much experience with resolve. It is not always bitter.
Oh, i know this one! Very nice.
ReplyDeleteSenryu, a new learning for me; from a human viewpoint rather than nature. There are many bitter pills hidden from view. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteGreat pen, straight on! Thank you!
