Much to love about this 5-7-5. The juxtaposition between the delicate dew "studded" on the web is so original. I could imagine myself coming upon such a natural "gem" and marveling at the art of nature. Your final line anchors the image with style.---Karenina

Beautiful picture and the poem describes the charm of the lovely dew-jeweled spider's web nicely. The last line feels like the verb should be 'entices' but you can't have any more syllables. Perhaps "tempts" or "lures?"

Wow! Excellent use of imagery here, Santha. It is perfection from stat to finish and I wish you well in the contest. There are so many of these 5-7-5 contests always going on, one has very little chance of winning, but you certainly do with this one. Bravo! Bob

it is amazing how crafty is the spider. God made so many incredible creatures, and of course all the unusual trees, flowers, etc. We were driving in Nevada few weeks back - saw some trees I'd never seen - most unusual shapes. All these God created. (I don't like spiders at all - but give them credit for creativity)
Good poem.

This is my style too.

Like your verse combined with illustration and background color. Your last line is the best of the three.

Unsure if your poetic style requires a period for your poetry or not. If not, then the cap for 'Fine' might be changed.

Good luck in this contest.

Perfectly put together poetry and accompanying photography, that indeed could have more than one meaning. Many things allure one's soul, but lucky not everyone gets stuck in the web. Crafty and beautiful web it may be.

Sanku, this is a good entry for the 5-7-5 poem contest. The look of a dew bejeweled spiders web is always eye catching.... and bug catching. I did ponder on the last word - entice - and thought perhaps - decoy - read smoother. Just food for thought. Best of luck in the competition. ~DD

I have not seen a spider web this size in ages. Indeed they are fascinating to young and old alike, especially in the early morn when spotted with drops of dew. Rod

I love the sentiments here of making the web pretty and enticing for the flies! I am not sure it works quite like that though because the idea is that the fly does not see the web! He he he, but it has charm for the human onlooker, love Dolly x
