I love the structure of this Senryu series, painting a vivid picture of the sunset as it paints the sky in beautiful and powerful shades.
The way you link and liken this to that of a beautiful woman and tie that all into Corinthians declaration of the body as a temple to the Glory of God.
Thank you for sharing Gypsy

This is all at once spiritual and romantic. My favorite line is and a wild uproar erupts inside my wistful heart. That is the spirit in action as you so deftly write in this Senryu.
I love the descriptions of your internal temple of God and how it is He who resides within you. This sounds like Buddism in the making and I confess I know very little about that religion other than the way it resides in the heart and spirit of the individual.
I admire your attention to detail in this presentation.
Well written and worthy of reading by the masses.
Jesse

    Thank you very much 😊 Jesse,

    This poem can be about Buddha or Jesus Christ. I was thinking about Jesus Christ. Since he was a man before he became a god, some believe he had a wife and children. I use my imagination and what it would be like to love a man who was extremely good and wise. I like the new testament and the Songs of Salomon (bible) about love. And the book of Longings, a fictional book about a woman poet and Jesus, it's a love story and they get married.

This poem is very sensual and emotional. I enjoyed reading. Your descriptions are perfect, 'your sand color skin tastes like cinnamon sugar
and smells like myrrh'. Just an example, there are others. The presentation is beautiful.

I enjoyed you senryu stanza. You know all about Japanese poetry and you are artist with your poetry as illustrating it beautifully. Sand color skin that tastes like cinnamon sugar and smell like myrrh is very descriptive using using smell, taste and sight.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This was such a fantasy where I could see, taste and smell the subject. Beautiful imagery, and a darkly romantic flavor to this. I really enjoyed reading this poem. Gretchen

Wow! The imagery your words deliver is phenomenal. I can see the fire, and hear the wolves as piercing eyes erupts in my spirit. I am not a poet, but I feel your compelling words. You've included taste and smell and provided a full sensory experience of heat and fire. Beautiful.
