Well done with your Mirror Cinquain for the club challenge, Sanku. I like your theme of the moth going to the flame even though there's heat and danger. Some of us humans are like that too. Nicely done.
Cheers

Comment from Boogienights
I like this poem, i've never tried this form of poetry before, but l like it. The moth to the flame theme is very cool, something that you can't resist, but could ultimitely hurt you. Thanks for sharing.

Doesn't that remind us of the human condition. That the source of this metaphorical proverb anyway, it's only in humility is found true wisdom, not in temptation, blessings Santha, (your name is almost Santa) blessings, Roy

Comment from teafor2
Sanku, your title, selected picture, theme, tone and banter is quite the myth...True these insects are attracted to light sources, and of course, if
the source(s) are hot they can an often result in the death of those that get
too close. This myth about the moth does not stop your creative work from being enchanting and endearing, even if a fatal attraction:) teafo2

I have always wondered about these insects flying around flames...The poets readily found a connection to humans...Thanks for stopping by and I am sorry my reply is delayed.

Excellent laying out of the attraction of a flame for a moth, and the disasterous consequences. It would help the reader to have the format requirements stated in the author's notes. kay

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Nice artwork and presentation, Sanku.
-You did a good job with the mirror cinquain.
-A very good opening verse with imagery
creating a word picture of the moth and
its attraction to light.
-A very good second verse showing
the impact of its attraction,
"my flame my end."
-Very well done.

Very deep, and true to life. The desire draws us in unknowingly, only to be our last act. If we do come back, hopefully we learn something from our mistakes. Your poem makes the reader think. I like that.

Comment from E. Powers
I liked your mirrored poem so much! Your repetition of the word "senseless" was so perfect. I can definitely relate to it as well. My first marriage I was the moth that let the flame burn me. Now I'm married to the most wonderful man and realize that you need to find a flame that reflects your own and keeps you warm. Beautifully done.

Beautiful mirrored cinquain, Santha.
Your imagery and message resonate with me, and I can recall numerous times in my life when I, too, was a "moth to a flame."
Thank you for sharing!
My pleasure to read and review and savor.
