I could sense the feeling as if I were in the boat.
I am an avid fisherman and you watch the water
constantly and throw toward any action. A wonderful
cinquain and I wish you well in the contest. -Bill Stephenson

This is a good entry for the Cinquain Poem contest.
You definitely have a clear story here and the picture is beautiful.
I for one 'would rather be fishing'.
Good luck to you with the competition.
Sharon

This is very clever ~ "pensive thought ~ fishing." Good transition line: "I concentrate harder." The image is gorgeous and perfect for your poem. Much luck in the contest with this great entry. Marilyn

G'day DD.

I wish I had a six left, mate. This is a beauty and the picture made me want to go camping and fishing.

These little pieces are way out of my league, because I'm so verbose, but you've nailed here, my friend.

A great contest entry and I wish you lots of luck in it.

Cheers Fez

    Thank you Fez for your review. Your mention of a six star is again out of my reach. Maybe I?ll strike it lucky with you one day or I?m happy to wait until the sixers are replenished and you are flush. ~DD

    Yes, mate. I'll add you to my white board. Everything you write deserves a six and I kick myself each time.

    Thanks Fez, I appreciate the thought. ~DD

    I just updated the white board. Hopefully, now, I won't forget. Gettin' old I think.

    Thank you Jax. I?m curious, did you really mean to offer the four star? Would appreciate some advice on how to improve my Cinquain poem if so. ~DD

    = OMGoodness--no. I'm so sorry, my finger just get trigger-happy. I usually check before I sent, but it just got by me.
    = I went in and changed it, so let me know if it went through. (*<*)

    Thank you Jax. So glad it was due to fat fingers. It has happened to me before where it was a mistake so I felt the need to check to be sure. Thank you so much for amending your review. ~DDxx

    If I do it again, which I hope I do NOT. Please, just let me know, and I will happily change it. (*<*)

I like the details that place me in fishing mode, the fishing line and the splash. I like the play on ideas too, the sense that the splash might have been a light bulb, idea going off in your thinking process. I enjoyed reading it.

Short, but a Cinquain format dictates brevity. I liked the wording and can identify with the feeling of holding the Nylon thread to see if there is any tug or movement. You captured the essence of the moment. Thank you!! Gems

Your cinquain describes the scene perfectly. I can hear the splash and can feel the excitement of waiting for you to reel in your catch. Excellent picture, message, and good syllables in each line. Best wishes in the contest.
