This collective effort shows how great minds think alike, but not in an identical fashion. Each of you made a valuable contribution, and each of you needs the others.

I honestly have no idea how you poets keep up with all these forms and what not. It is amazing. I barely understand Haiku and Acrostic, now all these other forms. It sounds pretty. Thanks for sharing

In my opinion, although unfamiliar with the poetry's form, I can easily say, to me it is beautiful and artfully presented - fluid in style and movement and lyrical in storied verse. The image and music further complements the beauty of the writing...

Collaborative renga - I really like this style - one learns something new every day --- cleverly thoughtout and so well presented, albeit so melancholy ---


Thank you for sharing this, Gypsy - a real pleasure to read.

Hi Hitcher, Gypsy, and Dean.

It's nice that the three of you wrote this wonderful poem together.
I was happy to read it. I really enjoyed what your poem was all about too.

This renga, Barren Tree Limbs Break, reminds me of when I had students make these in class. We used a wiki site so they could do their piece wherever they were.
My understanding about the haiku portion was that poets competed to see who would get to start the renga. The losers simply threw their entries away. Finally, some scribe gathered them together and made them a stand-alone form.
I guess this hasn't addressed YOUR work here. I know that you are all especially talented, gifted really. This is additional proof of that.

Wow! I'm spellbound! Kudos to your collaborated effort; everything seems to be in perfect sync. Getting introduced to Renga for the first time and happy it was through this poetry of yours. An absolutely thrilling read. The background score and the image too is totally fascinating! Keep it up! Regards.

A very well-written Renga with great teamwork much can be accomplished. It tells a great story as a whole in three parts. Part one is excellent and I belief the other parts will also excellent.

As always I marvel at your genius in this, especially when more than one writer is involved.

The pic is great, but the way she's holding that sword? I hope it doesn't depict an intent to commit suppuku or something.

Cheers,
