self-reflective senryu series
What does my life show? Is Truth I'm set apart to communicated? My Home is elsewhere; does that show in what I do and things I cling to? Do my actions speak? show that God, who surrounds me, is completely Good? Do I manifest God's providential greatness? My trust in Him clear? Can my fear of Him be seen in the ways I act? His Word outweighs mine. Is God's Grace to me obvious in life's courtroom? My striving falls short. © MLeeDickens'son 2018 during sermon challenge ·······  ·······Slow down; things will go faster!

Hi Daniel,
Glad my crits didn't cause you to get mad at me. I do see the irony of my suggestion in the first Senryu; although the truth was communicated, it wasn't grammatical. If you have a truth to communicate, it probably doesn't matter as long as the recipient understands the underlying message. I did enjoy your string! Larry ······· ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
