Comment from Ms. Snyder
This is a beautiful and stunning poem with a perfect photo for the One Line contest. I think that you definitely define bright in more than one way with the reflection from the pavement and the color of the umbrella. The dull is represented well with the grey and dim of the background. I like this a lot. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Cindy McIntyre
LOVE it! I think the one-liners are often the most difficult to write. You've created a powerful message in such few words. A perfect contest entry. The touch of red in the black and white photo goes with your every word (brightness with the dull)... Great luck in the contest. I hope you do well.

We have had a string of dull days lately, so I appreciate this advice. Even a short-time glimmer of sunshine boosts my spirits. Thanks for sharing this one. Rod

to emphasize the image
of "dull days."

Comment from dragonpoet
Yes, you have to look for the bright side of things sometimes or life would be a lot harder sometimes. No matter how dark things may get, things always get brighter.
It is a good piece of artwork you chose to illustrate your work.
Good luck and keep writing
