Splintered relationships so forcefully caught in your sharp Senryu, Maureen. Top notch writing from your creative pen. Sincerest regards, Brian

Pretty sad. But hope for the best. May the New Year bless you with health, wealth, and happiness.

Happens more and more these days. Powerful Mo :)

Brilliant barbs of wit and fire, Maureen.

Some cross words can put us in the crosshairs of permanent division, impossible to patch back up to its previous state, always a suspicion remains, a great senryu Super Mo, cheers David

I'm positively pondering this one in a positive way Maureen... Really good... Thanks

Every time I knock at your door you open a deeper expression of truth. I really like this one Maureen

Phew!! Split wood. Hugs.

They say action is more powerful than words, I wonder sometimes. Glad to see your muse awakening again, Mo. Sending love...Charlie

awful when that happens Maureen. People don't realize the power of words and take them way to lightly, as poets we don't, even when we pour our souls out, we know, the power of words. I love this :)

As always you got it girl. Thanks for your advise. I've been a touch distracted as my next door neighbor put moth balls outside and my cat is in third stage renal failure. I had to get the young one checked out. This is the price for one poop in this man's yard and his action are illegal by state and fed. regs. He could have called me to inform but did this instead. I think I need to move..
