Very nicely done, Lin. I can't recall my mother ever complaining about anything and she had 15 children.

Some take pride in their Stoicism. Only the crimson droplets reveal their subterfuge. Thanks for your kind visit.

So many do suffer in silence Lin, and the powers that be, are happy to leave them to it, its probably best to get it out of our system, just like you do here in a brilliant senryu, cheers David

I always try to be strong in helping others get through rough times, but none of us are immune to needing someone to be a crutch when we need one. You know what I mean. Thanks for liking this Senryu, David.

Some have that ability to not show their suffering, their real strength comes from within. A lot said in three lines Lin. Tom

I can't always keep my suffering inside. My sleeves are often wet. Thanks so much, Tom.
