Fabulous read Carolyn how did the MRI turn out.Let me know if your ok.~LOTS OF LUV~Teresa

First! How are you doing? Thinking good thoughts about you. The gull is my favorite bird - such a flyer, such a swimmer! So beautiful. Yes! Though gulls usually have company, there is something so lonely and forlorn in their cry. Rick should love this one. LOve, daver

Carolyn, I loved your poem. At least your not like any other poets I've ever read, I do a style but you do all styles, but, I'm fine, and the Lord has blessed me with a lot of things in my life, and now maybe, another. How is our treatment going? Hopefully with prayers we with the Lord's help will come out of this all right, I say we because I'm their in Spirit if nothing else. God bless and keep your chin up and believe that God will do His mighty will.

Excellent Haiku Carolyn.Congratulations on your win,visit me.

[re title have you seen last line used as well as first? let me know!] Lines 1 & 2 are great! you need a cut which is not the poet telling the reader how to feel also past tense is never used in haiku, give a sensory input on line 3. BIG hugs

Dear Carolyn, my congrats too for your well deserved win! I'll pray for your health1...Love, Gert

This sure gives such a sad image, Carolyn but very effectively written-- super congrats on your win :) hugs and have a good weekend!

Well done, Carolyn! Good luck in the contest. Got your email about your MRI results. I do hope and pray the physical therapy will improve your condition. Take care. Love, Caroline.

This one paints a sad picture of that lonely gull. Congrats, Carolyn. I don't think I had ever seen this gem before.

this was great good luck in the contest. cory

Beautiful but sad write, my friend. My mother feeds a seagull with a gammy leg here - it seems to be an outcast.
