Cogratulations onthe fourth place win in my constest, Carolyn

I am glad you and John's sister are still close Carolyn.. A beautiful set of senryu for Dr. Ram's contest, love wilma

a great piece of fine poetry, thank you for commenting on Two Apples

Revisiting this touching Senryu .Pl.Visit me Carolyn.

different take on the contest. I like the way you use the contests to bring out the things you want to share. This is indeed a tragic story. Moves me to sadness for those left behind.

I enjoyed this set, CArolyn and how sad about John and his dad.

When it comes down to it I think we all try to avoid fate at times. It's wonderful that John's mother and sister were good people. Some of the entries are very funny but this one is moving. Good luck in the contest. Best to you, Diane

BTW...I was the girl in the Monopoly poem...I am the middle child. In case u were wondering. Sure miss my dad! :)

Wow...genetics is often the path of our fate, isn't it, Carolyn. It is a beautiful gift that you can remain close with John's sister--I hope she has his eyes and it will bring u much comfort. Nice idea of Doc's for this contest--not thot of it much-u should do VERY well...if I wrote about my first set of in-laws--America's Most Wanted might find them...ohhhhhh. ha ha. You must have sat in the waiting roooom a long time today to write these 3 lovely poems. At least u had pen and pad in hand.

A great write on John's family, Carolyn. Very special people.
