Great lines, Sandra; flowing so harmoniously. A good writer's pen should flow with golden ink..(smile)

Another excellent senryu, Sandra. Have you ever noticed that a man's ego can be bruised a lot quicker than the ego of most women? Cute poem! Carl.

Good.good.good! A little rhyming always make a haiku or senryu sound better, though haiku specialists say rhyming is not necessary in haiku/senry.
