This short and sweet and simple poem well meets the requirements for the writing prompt. The picture is elegant and a perfect complement to the well chosen words.

Exceptional

It is amazing how much emotion is in your ten words! Even without the photo background, the words convey a clear mental image to which any reader should relate.
