POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
We have to try it ourselves
We have to experience it
That beauty cannot be taught

Senryu is like haiku: 5-7-5, but instead of being about nature outside, about human nature

(cont.) As for complete forgiveness, i think maybe it can't be taught, but can sometimes be learned, sometimes 'the hard way'. bri :) to MyPoemList. oops! i already typed that earlier; i can't send it twice!

(cont.) When 'in a pickle', her big toe I tickle. About that she is fickle. BUT i think i read Senryu does not rhyme! ! rules! ! ! Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire (title is borrowed from a kids' saying) I lied to save my white skin. The judge said: Guilty! I cried like a 'big baby'. (cont.)

dear 'Auto Fiet', so the Poet's Notes is not Senryu, but it is ok. ;) thanks for the explanation, and i checked; ....the Unteachable IS Senryu. i bet a lot of poets, including Haiku poets on PH have called Senryus Haikus. 'sen - ry -u/ou seems to be the pronunciation. -ry like rye or wry in English. u like ou in English soup to MyPoemList. i'll try one next. (cont.)
