Great lines and senryu depicting how in our we drift away by the stromes of life ? Then we see a light of hope or the light of God amid the roaring waves of sea which saves our faith? With best wishes always????? Ravindra K Kapoor

Hello Sara, This superb senyru appeals to me at every human level. Your precise words say so much. I apologise for not lodging a comment at an earlier time. System Error on Poetry Soup the villain of the piece again. Howard
