What a beautiful Cinquain, Gypsy. The picture was perfect for your words or the other way around. The desert was definitely a barren place, to have to go full steam ahead was truly mind boggling. Very well done, greatly enjoyed. Oh I really enjoyed the flowering cactus following your words. Blessed be, hugs.

I love how you used the different colors in the font for this verse. It helps set up the theme of an arid desert. As always, you do a lovely job on your haiku, Gypsy!

Exceptional

Once again I am impressed by your usage of so few syllables to paint such vivid pictures in our minds. This one blew me away and so I am awarding the extra star. Fabulous piece of work - thank you so much for sharing.

This is so beautifully written that I'm think it would be hard for me to imitate but I will try. I like the metaphor, the choice of the word "Caravan" and the presentation. They are all great.

Well done.

Oooh! What a lovely scene you depicted with your words! I can imagine the clouds "caravaning" over the desert. It makes it even more stark that the dry desert remains unquenchable! Glad you are adding cinquains to your club challenges!

Yes, I like Cinquains and I am running out of Japanese poetic forms
LoL I'm always at the lookout. But there are other western poetic forms that use imagistic forms with syllables count. Eventually I will have to use old forms we covered before.

Thank you very much, Helen. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. I'm excited, me and all my family are going to Disneyland for a couple of days and staying at the Disneyland hotel.
