Michael,
Some fine senrys and beautiful flowers!
History should never be erased. It should be understood. Weāve all endured hardships! Thatās what makes us strong!
We can knock down all the statues we want! The past will not be erased! It is up to all of us to to be civil, humane and understanding to make it better! I never thought weād be where we are...BACKWARDS!

Great poem and sentiment, what takes generations to cultivate can be torn down in moments if we aren\'t mindful of it.

Thanks MIKE ~ Spring has surely Sprung ~ The whole of ESSEX is suddenly Blooming ! Your SENRYU (love them and their Sister HAIKU) seems to me to be in praise of the BRITISH MONARCHY which is now guaranteed to last another 100+ Years due to Charles ~ William ~ George (Great kings of the Past & Future) DV ! With a little help from the Harry & Meghan Show which popularises Global Affection for The British Monarchy in all its Pomp & Circumstance ! Please check my Ode to HMQ ! I am a Northern Socialist Monarchist at heart ~ hope that\'s not an OXYMORON ! Yours as ever BRIAN \"House of Lancaster\"

Accidental Poet said:
There has to be a reason
Some meaning in the past
Consequences of good or bad
The ripple effect to our future will last
So in the rear view mirror
The past falls away
I know yesterday is gone
But it gave us today
Excellent Michael.

Everything evolves but without the past as an anchor things get sad..... I don\'t understand \"revisionist\" history that tries to erase what happened..... it\'s like \"1984\".......... understanding it seems better than erasing it........... we have \"statute destroying\" going on in our South...... by those standards we should knock down the pyramids because they subjugated the people.......... ooops too heavy a comment.

A fine write Michael. I\'m bit traditional (fuddy-duddy?!). Some churches, for example, hardly know what a traditional \'hymn\' is. For them, it\'s the same \'chorus\' or two, sung about 20 times! doh!

Cutting it short if need be is never a bad idea sir, as this is clearly proof. Solid buildup and a striking conclusion. Wonderful.

SUNDAY
Lauraš» said:
Michael,
As a child, I was taught that Sundays were to be a day of rest. Then adulthood happened and reality set in! Sundays became the busiest of the seven days! Everything that I didnāt have time to do during the week, became a Sunday chose...exhausting!
A great write with a beautiful pic! The last two lines are perfect...for me!
