So glad there are some out there that got that little piece of sneaky erotica, Jen!! :) :) After the first few reviews about how the plants and sunrise didn't really fit the romance genre, I had to add the little author note.....and,yes, even then, there were some that didn't get it, but c'est la vie, oui? :) ;) Thanx for wonderful stars and may you have a weekend filled with cool breezes sprinkled with dandelions and pixie dust! :) :) Yvette

This is a lovely 5-7-5 poem, my friend. Nice usage of the word "scythe"
Good luck in the contest. ~Kerry

Got the double entendre right away. Guess where my mind goes? LOL! You have chosen the perfect image to illustrate your poem. Great job with your classy erotica. Marilyn

A very well written 5-7-5 syllable poem. I see your double entendre, but it's too subtle and would have to be explained to most people in understanding your thoughts. Well done, though, even if it may be hard to get your meaning across.

Thank you for your review, sir - appreciate your taking time to review my work! :) ;) And, after I added the author note, enough of the younger folks must have taken the time to look it up as it placed second...not too bad considering I had to add the note in the first place - LOL!!! Thanx again for those wonderful stars and may you have a remainder of the week filled with cool breezes sprinkled with dandelions and pixie dust! :) :) Yvette

Thanx for your review, Jenny, - always appreciate folks taking time to review my work! :) And (not that it really matters...) I think I'm feeling pretty old having to point this out (but c'est la vie, oui? lol), but 'nature's scythe' refers to a uniquely male item...gives the whole poem a different 'feel'. ;) wink, wink ;) Blessings for a wonderful week ahead, ma'am! :) :) Yvette

Hello Anon
Yes, I get it...erm, I mean, that is, I understand it.
Not that I don't also get it, sometimes, well, not that often anymore, but what I mean is...phew, is it hot in here? Did you fiddle with the air-con?
Anyway...
I will stick to a review of the form, rather than the content, shall I?
Right shape and size (I am talking form, not content, remember) and certainly one to stand out in the contest. A good take on the contest theme (and the picture is very well chosen).
I wish you well with the contest and your further writing.
cheers

My oh my... what a beautiful and vibrant picture to accompany this well written 5-7-5 piece which highlights the wonderment of nature. This would do well in a haiku contest. A thoughtful and enjoyable write. ~DD

Thanx for your review, DD, - always appreciate folks taking time to review my work! :) And (not that it really matters...) I think I'm feeling pretty old having to point this out (which kinda happens more and more these days, but c'est la vie, oui? lol), but there is a hidden message in here if you do a quick investigation into the double entendre contained in the first line...gives the whole poem a different 'feel'. ;) wink, wink ;) Blessings for a wonderful week ahead, ma'am! :) :)

A very well-written romantic 5-7-5. It is clear what the words are saying without saying it out loud. A tasteful way to be sexy and romantic without being too straightforward.

Hooray, Sandra!!! You are one of only two reviewers that actually understood the double entendres I tried to write here -- thought maybe the "warning" I placed on the piece may be a hint, but it really didn't help....sigh. But, hey, c'est la vie, oui?! :) :) :) Thanx so much for your review and analysis, Sandra - always appreciate your input! :) :) Blessings for a wonderful week ahead! :) :)

I like the artwork you choose to go with your poem
It is a perfect match
You captured my attention from the freest word to the last
I didn't feel offended by tour poem after all is this not suppose to be a love about love and emotions.
Thank you for sharing
Cookie
