Congratulations on having your 5-7-5 well received in the contest. I admired the mood you captured and your use of alliteration to intensify it, along with the parallel artwork you selected. Cheers- Joan

Nicely done five seven five, Melissa. I really thought you did a great job with this poem. it's almost got that haiku feeling to it. I hope it does well in the contest.

Take care,
Russell

A very well-written 5-7-5 about a wonderful summer morning sunrise that wakes up the earth slowly until everything wakes from its sleep. A great photo that complements your poem perfectly.

Hi there,

Thank you for sharing your five-seven-five for the contest. The artwork you chose to compliment these words works well. I love to watch the sunrise, and since I wake up early, I usually take my morning coffee out and watch the summer sun come up. (In winter, I stay inside.)

Good luck to you in the contest,

~patty~

You did a great job with your 575, Sugarray. Goo syllable count per line. Your picture is a great pairing with your words. I enjoyed reading your relaxing poem. Best wishes. Jan

Sugarray77, a good entry for the 5-7-5 poetry contest. All syllables are in check to describe the waking of a new day. The air crisp and the birds chirp - just beautiful like the picture you have added to enhance this piece further. Good job and good luck in the competition. ~DD

What lovely artwork to enhance your image of the sunrise. It is a gorgeous picture to wake up to. Nice alliterative sound with misty and morn. Nice detail about the earth slowly awakening. That means there is sufficient time to enjoy the beauty. Great presentation, and best of luck in the contest. judi
