brilliant poetry in 3 lines, a work of art Kelly :)

[Kelly Scheppers]

...thank you, my dear Richard...hope all is well in your world!

Kelly, first I apologize for being away so long but things are evening out now, my wife is coming home tomorrow (with a broken shoulder, d****t!) but my life can again become whole and I can get back to reviewing. I've said this often, but I wish I could write these short verses as this one so perfectly exemplifies. This is so beautiful it is breathtaking. Your talent, your gift never ceases to amaze me. Thank you for sending me the rr. take care...dan

[Kelly Scheppers]

Dan, please don't ever feel like you owe me an apology for anything. Life happens to us all, and our priorities have a way of taking us away. Just remember - I am here, and you can always count on me! My very best to you, my friend!

[Richard🖌]

MMmmm … lucky fellow!
Well, I've been known to fall-in and drown in eyes of brown and blue myself, so I completely understand what it's like.
What I don't think I could ever do is express it half as wonderfully as you have here, Dear Poetess … you are a marvel to behold in everything you create and share, and that picture speaks volumes in a most delightful way that swells the imagination.

Love it, Kelly … thank you ever-so warmly for sharing this sweet delight! ⁓ Richard

(think I'll hang around for a few more reads, to let it soak-in nicely, and complete that last syllable imaginatively) ; )

[Kelly Scheppers]

I must admit, your reviews always leave me with something to smile about! : )

[Richard🖌]

I'm so glad I do "something" nice for you. ; )

[Lydia Shutter]

The eyes have it! :) Sensuality and seduction in three small lines. Good one, Kelly. Lydi*

[Kelly Scheppers]

...thank you, Lydi...I've grown accustomed to THAT face! ; )

[Lydia Shutter]

Thanks for making me smile!

mmmmmmmmm cerulean blue!! not just another "blue" ;) no way out is a deep deep place ... i think standing on that brink and the adrenaline rush once deciding to fall ... is one of the best and brightest excitements that love can reveal to us ... you packed a lot in this senryu ...

[Kelly Scheppers]

Perhaps I should dedicate this to that adrenaline rush...what a thrill it is! Thank you, E!

[Einstein Noodle]

Indeed...the windows of the soul...so deep one seems to never be able to excape. You've written it well in so few words! (I remember you from Starlite!) ~Sharon Peeples

[Kelly Scheppers]

Hello Sharon! Yes, I still post there from time to time. I am thrilled to see you remember me...thank you so much!

[Ruth]

Eyes are such a window to more than the soul, eternity dwells in them and is a humbling experience to fall into such at times...sigh, beautiful Kelly! xo

[Kelly Scheppers]

My day is a little brighter whenever you're here...thank you, Poppy!

[An owl on the moon]

Yes, how vast and enchanted every color of the sky. And when you look into the cerulean eyes of a lover, all you can do is fly.

[Kelly Scheppers]

...so true. And I've been soaring ever since! Thank you so much, Craig. As always, it was good seeing you!

[Trace]

Blue eyes get me every time.
Obviously they got you too.
