Okay, I’ve never written a Senryu in my life, I’m too lazy to do that. I don’t know much about them: when I saw they were difficult to do correctly, I moved on to my own difficult mise-en-scène: blowing up words and phrases until they made people laugh, regardless of spelling, context or what others thought. But I do know good, smart writing when I see, read, or hear it (my favorite), and you’ve certainly shown us you have that in spades. Or in Senryus at least. Nice work.

“shadows bark my name
I toss one a broken thought
it brings back a grin”“clarity short out
thoughts glitch like gods on crack
I praise the misfire”Powerfully penned, 253. Excellent writing my friend. Dig these lines above. I couldn’t pick one over the other, killer fucking lines brother. Appreciate you.

Thank you, Dru 🙏
I consider your expressed enjoyment a compliment that deems my endeavors ever-so deeply worthwhile and rewarding … you make teaching and sharing a pleasure.
Your abilities to perceive and follow detail reveals an exemplary potential. And, from others’ positive reviews, I see they feel much the same as I do about your developing skills and knowledge. : )

Love it, Dru

Excellent, in every sense of the word: counts, directives, and intent in following in the spirit that one of the truly tangible facets of what the Senryu is meant to convey.
For me, your Senryu literally strives to express needed fervor for acceptance and the strife to be trusted and believed-in, even though the opposite may appear…Read More

Beautifully penned, Fia. I remember last Thanksgiving on DU as well. I agree that our new home is special, and I appreciate all the work you put in to keep the site running, cuz. Along with Sam and Bobbington and all that contribute to keeping the lights on in our creative sanctuary. I’m thankful for this community of gifted writers and amazing people who share their stories and invite us to experience their journey with them. Happy Thanksgiving to all of the Stars Rite family! Appreciate you all.

Chère F.,
What a lovely idea to organise a Thnksgiving dinner.
I am still grateful for a number of very successful coops with DUP people. Very rewarding in terms of the gentle fun of putting energy into the work and make it work.From some 4.500 listens, to an estimated 12.500 (Loving you – with Faith Maree), it resonated immensely in Europe. I am trying in a very small way, to make that happen again.
I can perfectly understand that the burden on the DUP mistress became too heavy. Therefore, I am most grateful/thankful that you have taken the initiative to give us a safe harbour here.
And I will try to extend my being thankful to the rest of the days, and not only on the 27th of November.Warm regards, Gus

I’m afraid it’s too late for my plead to keep the poor turkey alive… But it’s never too late to express my deepest gratitude to you, dear Fia for dedicating your heart and soul to Starsrite🙏
You served a delicious meal with your writing😘-
I left you the best part of the turkey. Did you bring the apple cider? Kinda thirsty.
Appreciate you and your talent here

I’m so sorry I missed this “Friends-Giving”! It is a pleasure to be here among all of you, and I wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah! Now, would someone please pass me some pumpkin pie, and that tub of Cool Whip!

Okay, Fia, I’ll look out for that, but I’m curious as hell! So what’s it all about? I’ve never heard of this before.
