This 3-5-3, Memorials, has the proper formatting and creates the scene where sorrows are carried away with the rising heat of hope which lifts love.

Like it. Says so much in so few words. Excellent choice of pic to go with the verse. Actually, now that I think more, the words were so vivid a pic would not be needed. Great job!

This poem reminds me of when we set of paper lanterns for loved one who had passed away. Hoping that he would be able to see them from heaven. Wonderful poem. Six stars!

This was excellent, being able to rhyme the three lines, with just eleven syllables. A different thought as well. There is a bigger story behind the lanterns for the reader to ponder. Well done. Good wishes for your entry.

"Winds that blow
lift lanterns that glow...
Sad thoughts flow."
You have chosen good words to describe this picture, good rhyming, and well presented. What a tribute to a loved one who has passed away.

This poem becomes very effective when looking at the accompanying picture. The rhyming is excellent. Great job for a difficult three-five-three prompt.
