Congratulations on your win in the contest, I have only written Senryu in the traditional form but your words are vivid and clear and very well done,~~

Congratulations Caryl on your win in Chris D. Aechtner's contest "Not Another Senyru Contest!". Love, Carol

By the way congratulations on your fine win here with this awesome senryu. LUv, Andrea

Caryl, about that word Benched, I rewrote one of my lines and must have forgotten to remove benched and substitute the correct word that I changed it for inside the poem. thanks for pointing that out to me. I'm sure I still used the right word count. I just forgot to show what word was replaced. I looked in a dictionary and saw that benched was a baseball term , not football. hahaha. Just like my poem said, using things I know little about to describe what I know even less about life!

I was hoping this would win, Caryl. Congratulations! Take care, Diane
