Amaranthina

Wrapped in death's dark wings,

She was at last as the wraiths ...

Her true family.

Beautiful Scars Date: 10/24/2017 5:40:00 AM great senryu dear Greg! and like on Eve's senryu I learned 2 new words on yours! thank you and congrats :) Login to Reply Gregory Richard Barden Date: 10/25/2017 10:28:00 PM Oh, you are very sweet, Laura, thank you so much! I am in love with words, not as a way to sound "deep" or articulate, but as new ways to create phrases and rhythm and say the same things in fresh ways. Walt Whitman did that to exquisite ends, and I just adore it! Blessings and I am honored for the placement! :-)
