Love this. It works well backwards too.
I must admit I'd never think to try a backwards poem but it's a great exercise and you excelled in the form. Thanks for sharing.

A sad story, well told, both forwards and backwards. The illustration you selected goes perfectly with your words. I hope this does well in the contest. I enjoyed it very much. MM

No one picked the pear because it was not in good shape. That was being true for sure. I never have noticed but pears have a tendency to shrink up like a prune.

Pears make poor raisins.
Comment from Tom Horonzy
I feel this could be competitive; however when read last to first the maiden seemingly has be recruited to be a lady of the night. . . . . . The challenge for me on these short contests is what can you say that you can past 15 or 20 words.

If you really can?t think of anything, Tom, just fill the space with dots. The digit counter can?t read, so a series of periods look the same as Shakespeare

Your 5-7-5 can be taken two ways 1. No one wanted her, or 2. There are no true men. Either way I found your poem interesting and fun. The picture adds to the poem. Together they make quite a presentation.

Comment from Rena Smith
I think this is a good 5-7-5 backwards poem because it's interesting. You followed the guidelines. Instead of using the word fruit I would have substituted self (herself). I would have used another word but it was a good poem.

This is a really good Haiku. The picture goes perfectly with the poem. I tried momentarily to write a Haiku with your first line changed to be the last line.

Your 5-7-5 Backward contest entry really worked well, either backward or otherwise. This must be hard to think of a subject that would do justice to this backward poetry. Good luck in the contest.
