this is so sweet, Carrie and just how I like a senryu to read.. Again, I was totally fooled by you guys this time. I had no idea I was picking yours, or Kash's or Jack's! Congratulations to you.

WOW! Carrie....I read it twice and ....like Richard.......I find I need to sort out my feelings on this...Hmmmmmm....It's so profound! You would come up with something other than that mushy ooey gooey stuff! ;) I wish I could know exactly what was going on in your mind when you wrote this. OH.....the aftereffects of a nightmare still....are with you....in your wakefulness...cradling your mind? Good one, and good luck!

This has a creppy feel to it. I don't know if that was the intention but if so bravo!
