I quite enjoyed this cinquain. The theme of the poem shines through clearly. Both the title and the artwork are well chosen. Thanks for sharing this work.

Me, too. I've just wrapped up my third novella here on FanStory and beginning a new one in mid-May. I'm writing the pilot chapter this week. A great book is always such a pleasure. I love love to read and to write! Sending you my best today as always,
Sal XOs...

Hello Sal :)
Thank you for your feedback.
Sometimes, life has the knack of pulling me away from FanStory so I hope I'm able to catch your pilot and keep up with your new novella.
Best wishes as always, Debra :)

My sentiments exactly--cleverly expressed--dwelling between the pages--I have been there myself today--am eager to return to a novel that has captivated me. Well said!

Comment from Gloria ....

Excellent

It gets rather confusing when different sites have different different definitions for the same poetic form. I like both of your versions of the cinquain, Debra and yes it can be a big vacation to escape inside the pages of a novel.

Excellent contribution to your NaPo project and what a journey it has been. :)

Excellent Cinquain poem about the joy of reading. It's easy to lose yourself in a well written book. I started listening to books so now I go through them faster. Well done!

Debra,

I'm not a novel reader, but I appreciate your
creative Cinquain and message expressed in those few words and syllables.

Well done,

Thank you for sharing the creator of the traditional cinquain. I liked your other description, too. You did this form perfectly and we can all relate living those other lives in books!

You did a great job with your cinquain, Debra. Great work with the cinquain. I like the way it is written according to the format in your notes. You expressed your thoughts and feelings well. I agree that books can take you away to anywhere you wish.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

That's what sparks the creative in a writer, the imagination, without it, there wouldn't be any new stories Debra, beautifully written my friend, and great cinquain, blessings Roy
