longest time friend. You've just exhibited to the highest quality exactly what I have missed in here for months. Your lines are so exciting and your words are each having that second hand of drawing me back to them again and again and again irrespective of how many times I have gone through them. Its nice to be home and you are part of the reason I have this refreshing feeling. A definite 7. Cheers!

This senryu lodged itself in my cobwebs and had me revisiting it's simplicity. Thank you for participating in the contest.

The ages and the pages cloud the purity of thought. As innocence gets left behind in clarity we sought. Love your senryu Nadiya. It may be time for us to get a recycle bin and a swiffer. :)
