This nature 5-7-5, Dewdrop Fire, has the right set up and sets the imagination off as the oxymoron draws a power from the web strength.

Hello, anonymous,

Nice entry for the Nature 5-7-5 writing prompt contest. Good alliteration of D. Good syllable count and connection between lines that facilitates flow.

Good imagery of the cobweb.

Good luck in the contest.

A very well-written nature 5-7-5 poem about the cobwebs dipped with some dewdrops Look like strings of pearls and diamonds in the early morning sun rays.

I'm not sure where to begin, you have so many wonderful literary techniques. The first one that stands outand will draw the reader in, is the personification. I do like yourbuse of alliteration. That really counts when read aloud as all poetry should be. You present delightful imagery with your metaphors. I have to give this A+ And I am voting for this one.

I like the word "beading" in descriping the work of a spider. right away it give the wed a crafted feel. Make it feel more homemade somehow.

Good luck in the contest.

Thanks for your comments. I admire beadwork done by crafters... and love to see it in nature. Some plants look like beads.

Best of luck with your "Nature 5-7-5" contest entry. Very nice artwork however the visual I got from the words would not need artwork. Dewdrops comparison to fire was a very nice line. Best regards.

Thanks for your generous review. I agree with your comment about illustrations - so often there are poems which could happily stand alone, but on this site the reviewers seem to expect a visual accompaniment. You clearly have a vivid imagination and can 'see' a poem, but many cannot, and need the words emphasised with an image.

A fine 5-7-5 with an ambient view of this diamond studded cobweb of beaded water droplets, you brought this scene alive with your metaphors here, love Dolly x
