That is what happens when love walks out the door leaving only the remembrance and fragrance of a loving flower. This is a good entry for the 5-7-5 writing contest. Good luck on the contest and your love life. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from LynnetteOK
A well written expression of love and loss. Is it better to have loved and lost or to have never loved at all? I think the answer to that depends on how long it's been since the loss.
Best of luck in the contest,

Comment from Debbie Pope
What a sad poem. She left, but he still calls her "my love." How touching. And he is clearly heartbroken in a way that will not mend.
Why does life have to be that way?
You did an excellent job with your 17 syllables.

This is a nice pairing of words +m picture, Mystery Author. Good job on the syllable count as required in your 575 poem about heartache. Best wishes. Jan

Comment from Dean Kuch
So, this could conceivably be classified as senryu, which is basically just human haiku without the references to nature or a kigo, or seasonal word.
Isn't that about right, Anonymous Poet?
Haiku avoids punctuation like commas, but some can be used as kireji, or cutting words.
Capitalization isn't used either, save for proper nouns, like the name of a person, place or thing.
Good luck with your entry.

Thank you so much for the excellent rating and kind words. Yes, I do suppose it could be considered senryu, though I have seen punctuation used in haiku in Writer's Digest magazine.

Along with a kigo and satori as well, no doubt.
You're welcome.
Comment from KyColonel Randal
Thank you for sharing. Technically not a haiku, but I have forgotten the term for such a poem focused on the human condition...starts with an "s". This does have the correct syllables for the contest you have entered, and the picture is a lovely choice. Good luck in the contest!

-Nice artwork and presentation.
-Syllable count is good.
-Effective use of one
continuous thought.
-You show the effect of
this person having left you.
- The alliteration emphasizes
the impact of this situation.
-Good luck in the contest.

This is a beautiful poem, simple and sweet. Well done. I hope love heals your heart once again. The flower was breathtaking! Did you photograph it?
Kindest regards,

Thank you for the excellent rating and the kind comments. I wish I had photographed but I actually borrowed it from fanart review. It was under heart in my particular search.
