Comment from Spitfire
Congratulations on your win, Rod. Expert use of end rhyme. I had to return the favor of your reviewing my poem plus we have something in common. I taught English at the high school level for 36 years, loved eleventh and twelfth curriculum especially.

I really appreciate the reciprocal review, Spitfire, and your high praise of my rhymes. I enjoyed the sophomore level the most, but enjoyed juniors almost as much. I really hated teaching second semester seniors once they knew which college they?d be going to. Often they quit working. Rod

We are competing in the same contest. Stick to your longer ones so I have a better chance in these short ones LOL
Honestly, I verified that kissed was pronounced as 'kist.'

Rod,
It was a pleasure to share the podium steps with you. One reviewer commented about this being a 9-11 scenario.
So, in my next redo life, the 1-6-1 poem would be:
late
to 9-11 gate ?
fate

Romantic, it touches me to my soul. Great entry, your words paint a beautiful picture. Your poem reminds me of a lost love, and the picture adds that special touch. Together they are awesome.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
The rhyming is good; the story is clearly written with romance characteristics. It is great to write these syllable poems; they are short and also fun to write.

This is a good entry into the 1-6-1 poetry contest. The text is a great size. The message is clearly stated. It also provides a good rhyming pattern. The visual fits perfectly. Good luck in the contest.

If it's good the length doesn't matter. You are welcome.
Comment from Rachelle Allen
Oooh! I haven't read all the entries yet, but this one definitely stands out for me. I like the words you chose because you didn't force the rhyme whatsoever. It's simple and perfect. Next, you found the PERFECT picture to go with it!! (Or did you start with the picture and then compose the poem?) Anyway, definitely a contender for my vote! Good luck in the polls. May you boogie down to the winner's circle!!

You earned it big time, Baby!! Good work! xo

I had a hunch about that pic-to-poem chronology!
Comment from Celyn
This is a good idea for a 1-6-1 poem but your second line has seven syllables in it rather than the required six. You could leave out 'thick' or 'grey' to make it fit though. Other than that the poem reads well so good luck with it

Wow! I can?t believe I missed that syllable count. Thanks, Celine, for catching my error. I took out "grey."
Comment from irishauthorme
Hey, a really neat-and clever!-use of words, while still conforming to the 1-6-1 rules!
Great picture to go with, kind of set the mood. The mist sort of hides the lovers from prying eyes.
Good work and good luck!'
