It can be a long bumpy thorny path

With many stumbles along the way

[sette]

yes that is so true my friend but then we have all the chances in the world to grow up

Wisdom packed into your 17 syllables. The road to recovery and healing isn't easy. It can be painful and requires patience. Thank you sette.

Chris

[sette]

you are welcome chris

[Jimmy Yetts]

Often, painful, as well.
Concise bit of wisdom!

[sette]

thanks jimmy my friend

[Weeping willow]

Interesting words, much truth in these little words ;-]

[sette]

thanks for the wonderful review

Not intended as a critique, but to me this is senryu . . . which is formatted exactly like haiku. The difference between the two – senryu is about human nature while haiku is about outdoor nature. Just a little tidbit to think about as you expand your repertoire of poetic forms. Here you’ve nailed the 17 syllable requirements well, while also delivering a fulsome message. To me, the key to these very short poems is to pick words that convey a ton of meaning, which you’ve done quite well. As we’ve shared recently, you & I know this tough path . . . it’s really helped make a better person, too (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Ang lalim,ang ibig mo ba sabihin ay kung handa kang sumugal para harapin iyon sakit at magpatuloy pa rin?mahina ako sa ganyan.😁😁😁

[sette]

mahina din ako sa ganun pero kailangan humilom ang puso para kahit paano mabawasan din lang ang sakit

[Eiram]

Kunsabagay tama ka diyan ate,minsan kahit mahirap kailangan pa rin subukan hindi kasi malalaman kung kakayanin kung hindi haharapin.Kailangan lang tiwala sa sarili,tiwala kay God at sa mga taong handang sumuporta sa atin.

[sette]

tama ka diyan

[Neville]

intriguing words indeed....... take care along the way..... Neville

[sette]

i always will and i am still not healed completely my friend and you know it

[Neville]

sometimes, these things take time.......

[Ghost]

If someone wants to heal they can be strong they can help themselves to heal... They are the ones to make their own destiny happen... Thank you for sharing Lissette

[sette]

no problem my friend looking forward to your new writings

[Paul Bell]

I've never done a haiku.
But you're right.
It ain't gonna come easy.

[sette]

try it for yourself its fun that i realized just now

[Eiram]

Never ko pa natry gumawa ng haiku.madali lang ba siya ate?hanggang ngayon kasi hirap ako umunawa ng haiku ang lalim kasi niya kung babasahin.

[sette]

hindi siya haiku senyru ang tawag kc inner nature ang topic pag outer po saka haiku sinubukan ko lang pero di masyadong marunong din kailangan lang yong 5-7-5 syllabication po

[Eiram]

Inner?as in about personal feelings, or thoughts?,mukhang mahirap nga bumuo po nito.

[sette]

hindi naman nakakatuwa nga kc challenging, opo yong inner emotions po natin

[Eiram]

Challenging nga,kung sa emotions kahit hindi ako ganun kaexpressive minsan kusa naman siya lumalabas pero challenge siguro sa akin iyong tamang salita para makabuo ng haiku or senryu na tula.kaunti lang alam ko na vocabulary words minsan hindi ko pa alam kung tama ang pagkakaintindi ko,hahaha.

[sette]

masasanay ka din wag mong ipressure sarili mo basta try mo lang unang beses me gumawa ng ssenryu di naman me expect kung magugustuhan o hindi basta nachallenge lang

[Eiram]

Salamat sa advice,try ko pag talagang tapos ko na iyon iba ko pa ginagawa.

[sette]

try mo talaga
