Senryu For Easter

Even on the cross
he forgave his fellowman...
his faith our light.

A very succinct expression to capture the true meaning of EAster. Nice to see you here tonight, Harry. As you can see, I got hold of a laptop to use in the motel! They can't keep me away from my soup. haha. Luv, andrea

Yes, I can see the differences in pronunciations make syllable counting very hard, Harry. Truly a terrific poem about the real meaning of Easter. Love, Carolyn

Succinct, powerful and to the point. This is what Easter is all about, Harry. Nice "modern" haiku. Last line has four syllables and that's acceptable in the modern haiku over the traditional five syllables. I think this poem will do well in the contest! Agree with what Wilma said 100 percent. Love, Carolyn
