Walk on the Riverside

Winter screams along the Shore Rain falls on the Rocks... Seagulls call my name softly... Pat .

vivid images of nature in this Senryu ; the sounds of rain pelting rocks; the voice of winter's scream ( a wonderful choice); and then you add to this your own person, and of course the seagulls talking (squawking) to you...so you've combined nature and humanity in a perfect verse....and may the seagulls speak only splendid words to you, my dear Pat.
Best, B

dearest Betty… you are a Snowy White Owl… very Wise .. to recognize that Winter sleeps where Angels Weep when Seagulls Sing Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah .. be blessed Betty.. stay warm and be Safe. tenderly, Pat

[Betty Hermelee]

What a ice compliment Pat!!! Happen to be in awe of owls...you're very welcome and may the sweetest bird give you a peck on the cheek, a soft one!!!
Best to you, B

Short but powerful imagery offered in this Senryu. I enjoyed the vision of the poet's pen.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Fabian…. My pleasure that you enjoyed the feelings on the Shore where Seagulls leave their gifts of love and lore. gently, Pat

[DIVYA]

The shore holds the winter so tenderly, dear Pat. It subdues winter's screams till she sighs with bliss. The seagulls send you their lovely sea spells. Your words pay such an amazing, emotional tribute to Nature.

[Patricia Wedel]

Wow!! dear DIVYA… your most charming review has me dreaming on a Cloud.. 💗 love the Seagulls sending me their lovely sea spells .. as only you could set to the 🎶 music of their Stormy Sounds. We had a light Snow as our Spring blossoms smiled. tenderly, Pat

[DIVYA]

Must be so beautiful to behold. Have a wonderful day, dear Pat....

Good morning dear Patricia,
Always a pleasure to read your gentle words.
I am finally back on Writers Cafe after 5 long weeks of being sick.
Excited to start writing and posting again.
Lisa, better in Spain

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Lisa… lovely to know you are feeling better. .. looking forward to your poetry. The Winter is Chilly, but no Snow so far. gently, Pat

[Lisasview]

Thank you my dearest friend,

An enigmatic jewel, is it haiku as it is certainly about natures glory or is it senryu as it also refers to human in the last seven as self, gorgeous view as if seeing from a frosty window a frothy shoreline of seagulls calling for you to come feed them so much comes to the imagination. A very fine poem in my humble opinion

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Corset…. A Person’s true Greatness is judged by their Humility. Thank you for your Review. I am honored to have your impression. Your words are like a 🎶 Concerto to me. tenderly, Pat

[Corset]

Humility is my New years "word" that I'll need to work on as well as patience, joy. I look forward to working on these words this year. Hopefully they will be mastered pffffft...but I can try! I can always try, in that lies the beauty. sweetness. pray for me please XD it's sooooooo hard!!!!! lol

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Corset… you should be Proud to be a gifted Poet. Kindness is the best Virtue. May your New Year be blessed with flowers and friends. Remember you are like a Butterfly who can fly. tenderly, Pat

Hi Jacob… it was set up as a Haiku; however, it still makes me chilly. It reminds me of the Title.. Walk on the Wild side… if you dare. Thanks for reading. I bought a Black Ebony Upright Piano at The Salvation Army Family Thrift Store. I may be able to sing Poems at some point in Time. I had piano lessons years ago to play easy Sheet Music. Wish I could play by Ear. gently, Pat

I would imagine the power of the sea in the height of winter could almost cancel out the screeching seagulls. You took me to Torquay promenade where the waves were battering the front. No one was walking there. Winter is a cruel season Pat.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Chris…I tried to type this as a Haiku… Nonetheless it gave me Reviews that are Stormy and I feel as though we all survived. Posting a Poem is the best Medicine in the Stormy days of Winter. Thanks for your gracious Review. tenderly, Pat

[Chris Shaw]

I think you are right Pat. When it is stormy outside, picking up a pen can soothe the heart:) Sending love across the waves,

[jacob erin-cilberto]

that is quite a nice walk. And you brought us along, so thank you, Pat.

dear Jacob… my Muse is playing tricks on me… placing my First thank you out of order. So I want you to know I love ❤️ the thought conveyed. Pleasant dreams … Pat
