Congratulation, judetar, on your win. Your words flow smoothly and seem so relaxing. Your poem has a great message, too. Respectfully, Jan

Thanks for the review Jan. When I rarely experience writer's block, it does seem like the words are scattered and I seem to be sweeping them up in my head. Cheers.

This poem does a wonderful job of highlighting emotion. Starting with "Mingling" prepares the reader for the idea of things coming together - in this case laughter and tears. It is beautifully organic.

Thanks for the insightful review. Haha, sometimes both in the same minute.
I love the peace and solitude of my cabin in the woods, no neighbours so I can sing way out loud when the feeling moves me, cheers.

Thank you for sharing more about your emotional side in this 5-7-5 senryu. I admired your alliteration of "m's" to intensify your message and your appealing presentation. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Opposing emotions creating balanceš???I like it very much -tears and laughter are ring out in equal measure. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Thanks for the review Iza. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's sad and I try to embrace both emotions equally. Cheers.

thank you for your beautiful picture and verse. Very much a picture of a flower in full blossom. I can see it swaying gently in the breeze. It sure has been breezy around here lately. Not a great for flowers.

Thanks for the review and sparkly stars to light my way. I spend a lot of time writing alone in my cabin in the woods and love to wrestle with both valid emotions, cheers.
