Hello Wendy,
what a great poem and picture to accompany it. It's true, we sometimes argue and even get furious with each other on occasion, but if the relationship is built on a foundation of love, it will endure and even thrive. Have a blessed day gal.

Comment from Brenda Strauser
I enjoyed reading this poem. It is unique and different. Sometimes when you are angry it is hard to be caring. Picture is a good choice for the poem.

Loved your cinquain poem and it's perfectly titled and illustrated. It's so true that our actions of love speak loud even if our emotions get in the way at times. Hope this does well in the contest!

You did a great job with this cinquain. You got the syllable count right, and your message was sweet. The picture was the perfect complement to it. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Excellent entry for the Cinquain Poetry contest. Good form and the poem flows well. I love the presentation. The picture is funny and adorable.
In a healthy relationship, when you fight or bicker they still love each other.
Wonderful poem, Wendy. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you very much, Pam. I am in a bit of a quandary because of your suggestion, as in Australia we generally pronounce "real" as one syllable, and the Cambridge Dictionary accepts it as one syllable although the Oxford Dictionary prefers two. And I wanted that word to emphasis reality rather than the fantasy world of perfect relationships. I have added a note to that effect and hope it will be acceptable. I appreciate your thoughtfulness, and a super and thorough review.

I just lived this. Even though one is angry, love kicks in and keeps the person doing what love would have them do. Honor and protect. The picture was hysterical. Great poem, Wendy. Gretchen

Comment from BOO ghost
Love the colors in this eye-popping picture and presentation. The picture also paints a picture. Guess he thinks this act of mercy who earn him some brownie points. Let's hope that this umbrella isn't a lightning rod! Maybe his secondary purpose?
Comical picture. The words tell it all. Well done!

AMEN!!! Couple don't always get along, but that doesn't mean they quit caring or loving each other. When God is the center of a marriage, God will handle the issue. I enjoyed reading this contest entry. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

Comment from GoWiSt
"with no words" Well, that would be hard to achieve for a story.
I so agree with the captioned-message of your picture.
"real life -
couples bicker" Except for the 'perfect' ones--ahem.
"Umbrella speaks of care" Nice that it does here. It doesn't always for many.
"rain of pain" Nicely expressed.
A nice cinquain. Good luck in the contest!
