This is and story in a poem Pam, I like the imaginative storyline, and the character. You have a flare for the fictional, which suggests a fertile imagination. This contains your usual meter and rhyming skills, plus you understand story writing, much like chess, beginning, important middle, and end game. Well done, good "game", blessings, Roy

Comment from fm wright
An intense story in poetic form. It sounds very much like it could be stretched out into prose form and made even into a crime novel. It is interesting that you never use periods at the end of obvious sentences. To me, this makes one sentence run into the next and has caused a little confusion.

Hmmm. I get it both ways. Some people used to complain about capitals and punctuation. So I took them out. I will reconsider. It is partly the way FS displays things. Thank you for your fine review

Hi Pam.
I liked the beginning and the end of this poem and loved the title and illustration however I found the middle a bit disjointed. That's probably just me though. All the best jen.

Comment from Shanbreen
I don't think length should be a problem as long as it moves the story line (in this case) forward -- yours does that. It's a well rhyming beautifully written poem. I would have liked to see a better title, though.
PS: I'm glad he didn't kill her -- even if it's only a fiction. =)

Hi Shanbreen. Do you have a suggestion for a better title? I appreciate your thoughts. I thought of just Cowboy. But I thought that implied Westerns. I thought about Serial Killer but it spoils the surprise. I thought about The Encounter. Thank you for the great review
