Buried In Wait

Buried in wait
This handwritten note
As tidal caresses

Soothe a patient scroll
Forsaken sands keep vigil
As Silence screams from beyond the bottle

did this one ever get judged?? What the heck is up with that contest? Am waiting to see all the winners, and in my box, I think it said I didn't make the list. So where IS the list???

great expression, especially the last one. I am not sure, but I am thinking you can only show ONE senryu. the second one would be my choice for just one!!
