This is my go-to style of verse. Great use of your phrases/words: change ... chameleon ... hiding!
like your illustration and background color for your entry

Comment from Debra White
Hi DD,
I really enjoyed your 5/7/5.
How interesting it must be to be a chameleon - to have the ability to blend into any background and be unnoticed. I love your final line - it totally sums up that particular characteristic of the chameleon.
Good luck in the contest.
Best wishes, Debra :)

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written three-line poem about the chameleon's ability to adapt to their current situation by changing their color to melt into the background. We should be like chameleons to accept whatever comes our way and make the best of it every day.

Comment from Joy Graham
Hello DD,
I love that picture. I'd love to see one of those guys in person, but they are too good at disguising themselves. I enjoyed your little poem. Excellent aha moment in them hiding in plain sight. You had me fooled with your title. Best wishes in the contest. This is a clever little entry.

Hi DD. This is an adorable little guy. I like the premise of your poem a lot. It seems we must all adapt one way or other to protect ourselves from those with hurtful intent, whether human or some other species. Excellent contest entry. Marilyn

Comment from Pantygynt
This is a good statement of how the chamelion manages to survive in a hostile world. This a good 5-7-5 that relies for its success on the oxymoron-like statement of its final line.

Comment from Bill Schott
This three-line poem, Different Color Skin, presented as a 5-7-5, picks the changeable lizard to point out that we can meld into the world while remaining ourselves inside.

Comment from Sally Law
Wow,what a picture DD! Awesome 5-7-5 three line poetry. All syllable counts good and not a word was wasted. I think I signed up for this contest and better get with it. Stiff competition here.
All my best,
Sal ;+)

Comment from lyenochka
Such a cool picture. I always liked lizards of all kinds and the chameleon is so interesting with his color changing ability. Certainly, there are chameleon-like people but somehow these changing times have spawn movements that seem to attract more attention. Good thought-provoking poem, DD.
