This is excellent. Of all the 3-5-3's I've read this one seems most perfect for the form to me. Illustrated beautifully and I can relate to the topic of the beautiful morning glories entwined with each other. Got my vote. Marilyn

This 3-5-3, Twining Vines, has the proper formatting and finds the pretty and ugly side of these invasive vines that are protected by their cuteness.

I think this is a good entry for the 3-5-3 writing prompt.
This short piece tells of Morning Glory vines.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.
Sharon

I enjoy reading haiku verse and this is a good one. It captures a scene from nature in all its beauty then brings in the darker image (which can be interpreted as human or plant) where twining is smothering, overwhelming natural growth and individuality.

What a beautiful picture to accompany your contest entry. Good job with the syllable count per line. Your last line is a great finish. I love morning glories even though they are weeds. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Respectfully, Jan

Delightfully fresh--twining vines smothering. Did art inspire versa or vice versa? Reminds me of the tree vines which choke the trees they twine on--dozens, alas, in my yard. Cheers. LIZ

    Thank you, Liz, I guess the picture helped me get in the mood then I did a bit of research.

Very nice poem. I liked the contrast between a blooming morning glory and its demise of smothering. Also, morning is a time of renewal and new beginnings. The irony of them dying is really poignant. Excellent work. Good luck in the contest.

    thank you very much, morning glory is a weed that smothers other plants. :)
