Wining and dining
At the Ritz Carlton Hotel
Sign of affluence
Hamburgers and fries
At the swank new McDonald's
Sign of teenage greed
Slurping tea slowly
At a Mumbai pavement stall
Sign of being hard up
lovely..a rare subject..all three eating places are good i feel
This is a most expressive senryu triplet, Sandra, and each senryu is written perfectly and very well. It is always a pleasure to see such propertly written senryu and haiku poems from your pen. You have a wonderful give for poetic expression and it shows in your fine poems. Carl.
A wonderful triplet of Senryu Sandra. It gives me an inkling of how refreshments are enjoyed in your country. I will have the second one, but only if McDonalds has a healthier section like we have in Australia now! 10 love Karin
Thanks for the glimpse into the social avenues of another world. Always enjoyable; seeing through another's eyes, even if only briefly.
A bridge between have and have nots- wider than seven oceans...............a good write.........
A beautiful reversal in the last one. I wrote one some time back Full moon or no moon Sheraton shines; slums below Always in darkness

Nice observation, but the last item could also be an unique experience, esp. when people are in love. Priceless......have to agree to what Mr. James says...
