I love the picture of the owl sitting on a branch in the dark of night and the full moon so big and bright. They sleep by day and stand watch by night. This is a very nice entry to the contest. Good luck!

Would that be considered "fast food"? As fast as they run, I don't think a small mouse is a match for the owl. Very nice contest entry, thanks for sharing and best of luck. :)

Thanks for the review. Can't help but feel sorry for the mouse but an owl's gotta eat.

A very well written Cinquain poem with excellent artwork, as the owl looks as though he/she has truly spotted dinner, very well presented and best wishes for your contest****kahpot

I love owls and enjoyed this write. The moon may give light to the night but doesn't do much to protect the mouse. I wish you all the best in your writing as well as in the contest.

Thanks for your review. Owls seem to have an eerie feel about them.

You have written a beautiful poem using the Cinq pattern. It all flows so nicely. Your picture choice just adds to it's perfection. I like your word choice of gnarled. Good luck in the contest.

Very well done on this. Syllable count is perfect, and your words tells a story. As we read it we can see the owl searching for his dinner. Great picture of the owl to illustrate your poem.

Poet,

I think you have done an outstanding job on your cinquain entry! Both your message creatively written and the stunning presentation as well. Your last line is like a satori and it's very clever.

This looks like a winner to me,
Anna

Atmosphere flows from these well- chosen words for this cinquain with its effective imagery 'gnarled branch' and a fitting title to enhance the theme -thanks for sharing
