Colored Road: A Senryu
Blue car halts, screeches,
kid suddenly runs, crosses
black road turns to red.

OH MY GOD!
This is heart-breakingly powerful, Rose!
I hope you didn’t see it.
Beautiful and tragic poem.

Nope… I didn’t and I wouldn’t want to see one ever. I have a necrophobia and a bit of hemophobia so i don’t think i can handle seeing one.
Thank you, Vi! 🙂 ❤

Sorry you have fear of the dead and of blood. It’s very natural when you’re younger, I think.

You have somehow managed to tell a heartbreakingly sad story in three lines. This is dark, sometimes, a writer’s got to walk the dark side 😉 Wonderful, my friend!!

It’s sad, and yet it happens. And colors, typically attractive, paint a tragic scene. This work is real, Rosema.
