Dictionary (Senryu) Comments

This is so true, and brings to mind those some of those commenting upon poems, who manage to contradict themselves so perfectly, as to say absolutely nothing! Hope I didn't just do that....heh.

really nice...short but sweet

From your point of view Sandra it must be frustrating to constantly check grammar spelling, and I admire you so much for teaching the English language. However, in Australia some schools don't bother about correct grammar and spelling. So I reckon it depends on the teacher and I think you would be excellent! 10 Karin Anderson

a 10+++ with smile!

The way we use english has nothing to do with compilation in dictionary. Its whether we can contribute anything to the language.

every body experiences and you have expressed it well
