A good picture to set this poem, although it could have been about a lot of things, the reader has an image in their mind thanks to the picture. All syllables are correct and this is quite an achievement, good luck in the contest.
Best wishes.

A very well-written 1-6-1 poem. We don't know why we have to leave sometimes from where we are to another place, we feel like we are going to cry, but we still bravely say bye!

thank you for sharing your entry for the 1-6-1 Rhyme contest. Your presentation with the children waving and the solemn words works well. My only suggestion would be to use the advanced editor to enhance the poem with a different size font, centering and a different font.

Hello there,

This is the second poem in this form that I have seen, which creates such emotive imagery in so few words and such strict syllabic constraints.

I wish you well with the contest.

Nice structured haiku(esk) piece. Distinctly and poignantly displays the sadness of goodbyes, whether literal or metaphorical. There is no waste in the writing, to the point, well done

Funny, if I read your poem without the photo,
I get a much different picture.
To me, the photo complicates something
that feels simpler.
Probably just me.

Best of luck.

Peace, Lee

I am a fan of the 1-6-1 form. You did well with your use of rhyming words. Your poem brings forth feelings of leaving and sadness. This is not an easy poetic form to create but you did well with it.
