You gain on one side and lose on the other...can't dance with angels and devils at the same time:) ~ Congratulations on your fine win, CayCay.

Oooh. I think that this was well-done, and am also surprised it was a bit far down on the winner's list,...but taste is very personal, of course, and as Gertrude Stein said, or forgot to say: "A win is a win is a win!" Best wishes, Gershon

I really like yours, Caycay. I see we placed down by the bottom but at least we are on the list. Congrats! It was a difficult topic to write a senryu for. This is a list i will be checking out when i have time.

CayCay, this could have been for all three of these prompts. I think this one will be in the winner's circle for sure!
