Great senryu there cuz! Right on target with the subject matter and I really like the extra effort in the alliteration. Spot on mate!

It's a lovely poem and a look at what has been passed and what hope there is for the future. I like it and didn't see any errors.

    It's a tribute to our democracy - a little reminder of what Inauguration Day really means to us all. Thank you very much for your review a lovely comments. Always appreciated, Sue

I was so touched watching a change in administration in this country--so seamlessly. No other country has this skill. Good sneryu. they were kind of my specialty last year, until I took a break from FS.

    I'm new at haiku/senru. I mean, I've done them, but continue to hone and hone. Just had to write something about this marvelous privilege we have. Thanks you for your great review and lovely comments. With regards, Sue

    If you are interest in senryu, take a look at some of the ones I posted last year. No need to take the time to review. I've written hundreds of them and posted 100 on FS. I'm a member of the Haiku Society of America and I included noted on the artform in many of the posts.

    I'd love to see you write more. If you ever have any questions, PM me any time.

    That is so cool! I LOVE haiku. Says volumes in so few words. (And great practice to become a better writer).

    Thank you for offering your help. Beware! I WILL take you up on it! HA!

This is lovely. Few words but very powerful. Sometimes the shorter poems can say so much more than the long ones. They're more difficult too as you have to weed out all the words that we'd usually use to plump up the poem. Lovely sentiment. Great job.

Warm regards.

Roisin
