Stopping for a Second

An endless pouring
Is escaping from my soul.

What an insightful poem. Love the emotion of the first two lines. Much for the reader to ponder about in just three lines. Thank you for sharing them and for your ongoing encouragement. Blessings to you. Karen

A cool senryu message! Yep, potatoes and corn are both very starchy. NOt so sure about beans themselves being starchy though it's murder on my figure. I ADORE starchy!! LUv, andrea
