    Great

    It takes a good writer to condence a thought to such small sentences. I have to get a book of directions for Hiku and senryu. This one is very good, it paints a perfect picture of two lovers under a weeping willow.

  • This is a lovely senryu with crisp images tempered with emotion. Well done

    Ohhh! Wow .. I never knew you can get such sentiment from a haiku, even if it is a senyru... I notice from your note that you plan to edit this.. But first I will like to say I really like the voice in this haiku.. Your style def.shows and althought I'm not sure about "personals" in haiku, I love the "I" in this write.. You set a wonderful background and we receive a great image.. Lovely write and best wishes in the contest

      ohh but some of the best Haiku by basho are written in first person observation...the "I" is not forbidden..
      and inclusion makes it senryu, still in the moment...
      thanks hun
