Yes, it's amazing how one can remember a childhood home, I visited mine in England after an absence of 43 years, and still remembered how nurturing that place was. Beautifully written Sanku, blessings Roy

This is well written and well presented. I'm curious as to the sentiment expressed. Is it a personal one or fictional? I felt an emotional tone when I read it. The photo engaged me straight away. Well done.

A house is a home where love, happiness sadness and new life is born and shard with one and all. If only a house could talk, the stories we'd share amongst our selves.

Enjoyed your 5-7-5 (was this for a contest?). There is something about a family house that keeps our childhood memories. The most important thing is to "value life" as the last line shares.
I know that punctuation is frowned on in haiku/senryu but wondered if it would help the reader if written: I laughed, shed tears, and blossomed~

    I know .I hated to take off the commas ,but they are frowned upon in haikus.
    No it was a club entry. Thank you very much for stopping by.

Those are really lovely words that would please any mother reading them from their child. We are what we taught, and how we are loved. I thought you encapsulated your growing years perfectly in these three lines. Well done, Sanku. :)) Sandra xx

Hi sanku!

You selected a good combination of verse and photo for this Senryu type poem. I too have used your FanArtist for my posts.

Do you want to include a comma after laughed and tears? and add a period at the end?. - either or both do not alter the depth of your meaning.

Mark

IMHO ... a larger font size will enhance your presentation value for other FS reviewers.

Good afternoon, Sanku! Beautifully penned poem of your life and experience. So much was said in short verse.

Sending you my best today as always,
Sal :))

This work has reached the exceptional level

The objective correlative of your work reminisces the making of the protagonist in a house made of tiled roof.

The work highlights the tiled roof features of the home; the ambivalence of mood swings of the protagonist and his or her appraisal of life.

The work earns its texture through its effective use of humanistic anecdotes typical of a Senryu.

Excellent work. Keep the flag flying.

Hello there, friend... It's been a while, but then I've been on and off for a bit! This is quietly moving. How well I recall all the lessons learned beneath my own family's roof. We bloom where we're planted! So nice to read from you this morning.

Thank you for sharing this short poem with us. I have often wondered what an old house, barn, or old tree would have to say if they could talk. I know they would have wonderful and not so wonderful stories to tell. I enjoyed reading.
