Why So Late? by GeraldShuler
Senryu You! writing prompt entry

Why, only at death,
Did I take the time to see
The wisdom you taught.


Writing Prompt
Write a 5-7-5 Senryu dedicated to a person, place or thing. Here's a chance for you to praise your favorite food, or honor a loved one! Have fun!

Author Notes
Too often we spend more effort in resisting what we have been told when we could have been growing from it. My parents taught me how to be who I am but I didn't learn it until they were gone and unable to appreciate what their son finally came to understand.
