Melissa,
Crowns of flowers are a wonderful metaphor for hope. Encouragment is a gift as we see here everyday. It is a cute piece of artwork to go with the senryu.
Keep writng and stay healthy

Comment from Bill Schott
This senryu, Encourager, presented with a 5-7-5 formatting, takes the act of encouraging others and gives it a reference point which brings out the love. Nice.

You've certainly mastered these shorter forms of poetry! This is a stunning image of empathy - plaiting strands of hope. Thanks for brightening up my day Melissa.

-Lovely image, Melissa.
-You wrote a good poem
about it.
-What a lovely thing to
do to brighten the day
of someone else by
creating beautiful
"crowns for others."
-A very good concluding line, too.

This short poem oozes of love and friendship between two adorable girls. Well done. The words are thought-provoking. I am not an expert to comment on the form of poetry. I just enjoyed reading it. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
I always look forward to reading your poem. It is very enlightening to me because of use of words by you. I like your use of "strands of bright hope" for the flower crowns, I believe.
Your poetry is very sophisticated.
Well done.

Comment from Pantygynt
Senryu are not my forte. I can see this has the human element and the piece has that oriental feel. There is a feeling of enlightenment where the satori line is concerned so I would think this fits the challenge but, as I say, I am not the expert here.

Hey there, Jim. This isn't for a challenge, just trying out different forms these past few days. I guess I could say, I am challenging myself... ha! Thank you!!
