Gypsy,

This is a time where your concluding line is in disagreement with the first two. IMHO

Since the memory is present already, your silent guest is invited and not uninvited into the mind!

    In this context, uninvited is an adjective.

    Thank you very much for your review and feedback.

Hello Gypsy,
Those uninvited guests can be a nuisance.
Memories of people from our past who have touched our lives in some way, do have a habit of interrupting our peace.
I really enjoyed this. It's very relatable.
Best wishes, Debra :)

Very telling. Captivating photo. It speaks to memories not always being positive with description of unwanted guest. Was this a loss of peaceful state? Excellent work

Another fine poem, Gypsy, and with me, rather than a person, it's what stupid, embarrassing thing I said TO a person; I'm the guiltiest person around; my own worst enemy

That last line of "uninvited guest" says it all. The first line "memories of you" is neutral. The second one shows that peace is invaded by these memories. It's the last one that tells us that the memories are not good ones. Well done storytelling in haiku!

I am not familiar with Renga poetry style. What an interesting concept of collaboration. This 5-7-5 piece is well written and conveys a powerful theme of unwanted thoughts. Nicely done.

Clean, crisp, and to the point. This well-presented poem is something we can all relate to...especially those remembering a painful relationship. I feel honored to have read it as my first review since returning ...

Yes, I think you and I remember many people that have "invaded" our thoughts, perhaps some unfortunate instances which are brought to mind and memory. Beautifully written Gypsy, blessings Roy
