I'm not sure I consider six words enough to make a poem, but I admit there is some merit to the output that's been coming from it. Yours is another good take on this contest! I like this one, including the picture.

Oh, this is lovely and I believe it to be true. I find, even if we get hurt every once in awhile because we're so sensitive, that I wouldn't have it any other way than to lead with my heart. Very well done and a delightful memoir to be proud of.

Mrs. KT ,

This is great. Nice summary for a nice person. I think leading with your heart isn't so bad. This seemed like a fun contest. This is the second entry I've read. Good work and good luck!

What a beautiful sentiment. I hope you always will!

I thought of a word-play, just for fun:

She led with her heart all-ways

I am not sure this type of six-word poem needs to have a sentence structure or refer to "she"....since it is implied by the contest rules what it is about, you need not specify. With only six words, each one counts a lot. So I would consider rephrasing. But anyway, it is a nice sentence! A code to live by for sure.

Warm regards,
rama devi

What an incredibly beautiful sentiment! Your near and dear ones must be so blessed, as in my limited experience, this is rare and requires a teflon toughness that those who haven't never experience. GB! shy

Hi Mrs.KT,
It fascinates me to see so much meaning and feeling coming from so few words and your choice of art lends strength to this write and makes an excellent presentation. I feel your short piece deserves six stars and I am truly sorry I haven't any. I wish you the best in the contest. Thank you for sharing this enjoyable read. God bless and best wishes!

    Hello! So much appreciation for your kind review! Bleeding Hearts are my absolute favorite perennial; I must have nearly 100 plants. They won't bloom until May here in northern Michigan, but when they do, and coupled with cobalt-blue persopholia and white trillium, they are breathtaking to behold....diane

    Your description sounds heavenly. When in bloom write another poem and post a picture with it. It just sounds so beautiful! God bless and best wishes!

I love it. Talk about a whole picture in only six words. Brisk, telling, heartbreaking...all of it right there. Congratulations, I think you nailed this.
