Hello PoemsOfDD
I pray and hope you did well in this contest.
I can see why your picture and 3 line poem of feathered seeds blowing in the wind
I've heard it told that the number of breaths taken to blow all the seeds off a puffball is equal to the number of years before true love comes into your life.

Everything to like here, photo to hopeful heart. Some of the best poems whisper, not shout. I felt the import of this, someone's heart depends on it....

Hello DD,
Your short poem left me with the feeling of suspicion as to what the lover truly has on their mind.
Your last line, "force me to wonder", sounds so open to doubt and of course, wondering...

A wonderful three line poem. Whispering on the wind may give a hint of love, but will the whimsical wind also take it away? --"whispers on the wind force me to wonder." Time is the test. Marilyn

Hello!
Powerful poem.
Powerful whispers.
Funny how that happens, isn't?
Your three line poem alludes to betrayal, unfaithfulness, or...is the person speaking causing trouble? I love a poem that is open to many interpretatins!
Thank you for sharing!

Hello DD,

I can feel that a little bit of whispering went through the grapevine for the person in the poem to have heard about some activities that might indicate a little,bit of cheating was going on? Makes me think of that Sam Smith song where he sings, "I know you don't know I know what you've done", and, "when you call me baby, I know I'm not the only one".

This little poem has a lot going on in between the words. Excellent imagery. Best wishes in this contest.

Wonderful use of imagery here. The first line expresses the narrator's questioning the lover's authenticity. Then we understand the reason for the questions. It's rumors, like weed seeds that are distributing doubt in the heart. Well done!

This is a great entry for the 3 Line poem contest, DD! Your syllable count is perfect and I love all the "w" alliteration. I think "whispers" is an excellent word choice to convey the message about doubt in a relationship. Very skillfully written! Best of luck to you in the contest! :)

A portrayal of the nagging doubt that can affect personal relationships. Only time will tell whether this relationship will stand its tests. And time, as we know is carried on the wind as the seeds of the dandelion clock. A very effective three liner.
