I have always loved six word stories. They truly test the theater of the mind, and a talented wordsmith can provide that mental stimulation using only a few well chosen words. Well done!

Carol, you've created a beautiful six word story that allows the reader to see the change through your words.

A boy and girl, an inspiration to kiss, then feelings, emotions and chemical reactions change everything.

Well told. - Thesis

Hey Carol, this is really clever. You use your six words very well to tell how a first kiss changed that tomboy's perspective promptly...oh the wonder of young hormones!

Excellent poem and pretty nifty presentation too.

That is quite a summer adventure and presenting in colors too!
I enjoyed your interpretation of the contest prompt and the picture you chose to illustrate your six-word story.

For such a short piece, you provided so many beautiful images. And you picture went so well with your post. The piece reminded me of a character I am working on, and you gave me inspiration to try to develop this character a little more. Thank you for that, and thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for the review. Did you understand that I was trying to say that a awkward tomboy's first kiss turned her into a a sweet young lady? Someone else said they didn't understand and now I'm worried. Carol

    I took it that the tomboy's kiss turned her into a woman. I thought you presented it very clear...and sweetly, if I might add.

I get it all but this; 'morphs'. I know what it means but what does it have to do with you. If you want to keep it a secret, I'll understand. My imagination is probably better anyway.

    I was an awkward skinny tomboy and I met a my first love on the Florida beaches and discovered I wanted to be a pretty girl instead. Does it makes sense to you now or should I change it?

    Yes it makes sense, good job.
