Comment from Dolly'sPoems
I loved your passionate words here and some lines in Shakespeare's sonnets was dedicated to someone who had power and would not use to harm anyone:
They that have power to hurt, and will do none,
That do not do the thing they most do show,
Who, moving others, are themselves as stone,
Unmoved, cold, and to temptation slow;
I thought it appropriate and clever and I feel the same about your words here, love Dolly x

Oh yes indeed, there was one single angel that killed 185000 marauding Assyrians besieging Jerusalem, King Hezekiah, prayed and poof! No more Assyrians. Yep God could obliterate us with a wave of His mighty hand, what constrains...love. Beautifully written, well done, blessings, Roy

Powerful message is conveyed in this Senryu poem! I love the drawing that compliments the poem well. Both invoke deep and tender feelings. I guess that's what Senryu poetry is all about. Good job!

You've written an excellent senyru for the contest
with correct syllables and an excellent poster-like statement.
Perfect picture to match.
You should sent this to politicians.
Good luck in the contest.
