I love this senryu. I remember a comment made to a bully, "you may win the fight, but believe me, I'll get in a couple of good ones that'll hurt you" beautifully written, a good post, blessings Roy

You've written an excellent 5-7-5 for the senryu contest
with a standout descriptive second line.
Sometimes you simply have to stand up for yourself
despite stereotypes that hold you down.
Great Rockwell painting to match the poem
Well done.
Best wishes.
Robert

"Resolve", is short, succinct, and very much to the point. With a minimum of words, this talented poet has told it, as it is. It was a pleasure to both read and review, this talented poet's work. I look forward to seeing your next post.

She shows her grit as you ably penned in your Senryu entry. The b- and p-letter alliterations add an extra ingredient to the Norman Rockwell type painting that accompanies your entry (-;

Good luck in the voting.

You have made effective use of your syllables in this uplifting, appealing piece. All people have to decide what's worth fighting for. Artwork--the Rockwell painting is perfect.

This is such a great entry and the picture is priceless. It reminds me of my sister. The picture and poem compliment each other beautifully. Great combination and good luck in the contest.

i know its not supposed to rhyme, but the last line should evoke a feeling of a certain kind. i felt in all honesty that your last line fell short, especially the word bruised.

I enjoyed this writing. Particularly I did the same thing. I put up with constant bullying, then one day I exploded.
It was a good read for me.
I love the picture you choose.
Good luck in the contest.
Mary
