You have a tender heart. I am more stoic.

Beautiful monoku.... dear Cay. This is how each one of us feel when we lose a friend, either through misunderstanding or deliberate choice. All the best, dear.

A friend's abandonment sure is a punch to the gut... That said, there's a time to leave; a time to grieve; and a time to believe -- that you can rally. Go, girl! ~ gw

The contrast of sadness with befriends me is very clever!

I enjoyed reading your "Feelings" Monoku write. "Good Luck" We both did this one. Have a wonderful day writing away..................

Cay Cay, the three are high on my list for rifling through my feelings. Great entry! ~gl poetess

One, at least this one, could write a book about what makes them feel; 17 syllable summation is a 'fun' challenge. Always good to see you ... CayCay

Very nice thoughts, Caycay. Did you use one of the two prompts? I am not sure, but you need to write the number of the prompt. I am going to write it out as well.

THANK you, honey. I CONSTANTLY mess up the directions - need you! Contest is closed so, hopefully, mine wasn't immediately discarded and following the directions, even late, will matter. Have been home for about 2 hours. All is well ... CayCay

CayCay, a very astute observation. Our thoughts and experiences all have the potential to create feelings. It's really quite a gift that we have them....provided we don't let them take over completely!! I find that if we have a balanced life, they are messengers and suggesters that help us consider how to react. Smiles!!

"Balance" - that's the goal, isn't it? Thank you for your comments, I do appreciate your presence on Soup and on my pages. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
