learned one lesson at swan school
beauty is skin deep

    I just read a really powerful acrostic from Ingrid and this is another powerful little poem with such an important message.
    Intelligent poetry. Well done, Michael and all the best.

    Hi Michael,

    Did you mean to write the I as a lower case?

    About the poem: there's two kinds of beauty, the one that is painted on, and the one that comes from within. The first one fades rather quickly, the latter augments over time:)

    Lovely little Senryu, well done and I like that you post so much as of late!

    ((hugs)) Ingrid

    I love pieces in this form, they tend to work the best when simplicity is used over trying to cram the poem full of stuff.

    Really like this one from you Michael top Senryu :)

    Gotta leave it there as having a sneaky pnq peak at work lol
