In your poem this is a way of life. You just sit under the sun while enjoying the day. I like your poetry. Excellent work! No grammatical errors. Best wishes in the contest!

Oh, how artfully you slipped in the word Southern before Comfort. This could be about my dating days long ago, growing up on Lake Erie where the beach was far more preferable than a movie or a play.

Hello Branda, this is really very good. You have used the necessary words well without making the content of the verse sound contrived. Perhaps some punctuation would improve an otherwise great entry. eg -
Tea, sandwiches and Southern Comfort by the Water, while watching the Waves crash to the shore. The Sun sets and a gentle Breeze blows; Yeah!

Good Luck in the contest - warm regards Dorothy x

You have painted romantic, jolly-good imagery with a few words. Well done. I love the accompanying picture is in sync with your poem. Good luck in the contest!

Your ultra-concise poem is vividly descriptive of a heavenly scene that makes me smile, say "ahhh," and want to be there drinking in the surroundings.

"The Perfect Date" is delightfully romantic in the most scenic way possible. In such a short way, it is amusing that all six words could so poetically portray a true view of the sea. Well done.

The amazing thing is that you managed to use all six works in one remarkable sentence. I would have loved to go on the date you described. It sounds quite lovely. I especially liked "the sun sets and a gentle breeze blows. Great work.
