This haiku is good advise for live. Love is always worth it no matter how short even if it hurts in the end. I like the door with the roses and what look like champagne flutes decorating it. Both signs of love like the single long stemmed rose.

Comment from amahra
That is the most stunning artwork: I always felt a single rose more beautiful than a garden or box full of them. And life does go quickly if you're too busy to stop and smell a rose. I know that's corny but I couldn't resist. LOL!

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Beautiful artwork and
presentation.
-The syllable count is good,
along with the topic.
-You have a good message
about life going too quickly,
and we shouldn't pass up
"a chance at love."
-I am reminded of the quote,
"Better to have loved and lost,
than never loved at all."
-I had a high school English
teacher that liked to share that.
-Good luck in the contest.

You have made excellent use of your seventeen syllables in this thoughtful poem about love, conveying advice about experiencing love without benefit of a guarantee.

Comment from Ulla
Hi Missy, I couln't agree with you more. Life does indeed pass at a frightening speed. Every day has to be embraced as if it were the last, and the same goes for romance. Not that I'm looking for any, but was still greatly bemused when I was invited out for a drink the other day by a total stranger . Who would have thought!!
I loved your 5-7-5 poem and good luck.

Comment from Ric Myworld
Life truly does go so quickly that it's almost gone before we know it. But how many real chances do we have for real love, I question. Lust can be instantaneous, but love takes time. And with such busy schedules and responsibilities, we seldom find the time to put in the effort. As I often have said, I spent my whole life chasing all the things I thought were important, while missing out on everything that truly should have been. Fleeting love, almost sounds like a quickie. LOL. Sorry, just couldn't help myself. Have a wonderful week! Ric

Comment from Jesse James Doty
This is excellent advice...'Never miss a chance at love, Even if it's fleeting.' So true, my friend, so true. Here is another one we must not forget, 'It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.' I don't remember this early in the morning who said that, but I think it was Shakespeare. You have captured the essence of the dichotomy of love. We long for it, yet it can hurt us so badly. I do not regret the loves of my life. I hope the same holds for you.
Have a wonderful day,
Jesse

Why are you leaving, Missy? You are an articulate reviewer and add much to the equation that makes Fan Story what it is. I will surely miss you too.
