An awesome Senryu, David...so much said in so few words with such a twist! I have seen those eyes and how they control!! Congratulations on your huge win! Sandra

David, all I could see when I read this was the mournful eyes of a hungry "puddy-tat". A well conceived Senryu. Thanks for participating in my first attempt at a contest
