Wow, poor, poor woman (or man)! Apparently, he/she is dating a psycho murderer. Hopefully, they did not meet online. What an sad ending!

    I guess you can't be too careful these days. I was thinking more about it starting out great and ending badly. Thanks for the review.

Wow! What a punch line! Great poem and loved the picture. You did a review for my autobiography "The Little Dog That Wouldn't let Go" ages ago and just going through for final promotion before I try and get it published. I wanted to go through and see how many of my old reviewers were still on FS as a lot have left. There are rewards all over if you want to visit again.

Wow! That's a sudden change. I like how you set the mood with the first three lines and then all of it becomes a completely different story with the last line. Well told with just 20 syllables.

    Thanks. I thought it needed a little twist at the end. Glad you enjoyed.

OUCH!

I was NOT expecting that last line -- which made this poem all the more fun . In the States (BTW, I noticed you are in Canada, now) there's a TV channel called Investigation Discovery (ID) that's all about crime and murder and you'll find that many of us are sorely addicted to it.

So, then, maybe you'll understand my enjoyment even more. haha! Thanks and good luck!

    Thanks. We get that channel here, but we have to pay extra for it. I watch it whenever it's on free preview. Glad you enjoyed my fun little poem.

Yikes! I did NOT see that coming, not from the artwork, and not from the first three lines. Wow! What a powerful poem relating a true horror story in only 20 syllables. Extremely well done, IMO - best of luck in the contest!

"Romantic Regrets", is short, succinct and very much to the point. Candlelit dinners, murder and what comes after make for wonderful reading. I look forward to seeing you next post.

Wow, what imagery! Who would think that romantic candle light dinners and walks at sunset would be a prelude to murder? Yet, it happens, crimes of passion are common - but what a waste!

I liked your imagination in this one. Draws many pictures in reader's mind.

lol.... love it~ Little does he or she know what the other is really thinking. That harmless looking steak knife may have other uses out there in the desert where no one will see or hear the screams. Hehe.

Interesting concept - what is summer? That is for the reader to decide. But the inclusion of regret in the title lends some clue. Such simple words and subject may have far greater meaning.

    Thanks. It's always up to the reader to interpret, but really it was just me getting some snark out of my system. No great meaning.
