CIAO TEMPESTE: This piece of art is outstanding. I like it in that it captures your reader's attention from the very beginning; "THE TITLE," and keeps them, HOOKED." until you deck them. A quick-witted poet once wrote. "A brilliant piece of literary art requires a hook and a line." You have certainly demonstrated that fact here. Well done, poet. God bless you. Cordially: rhonnie69. P.S. Tempeste, this looks like fun. I think that I shall try it. CIAO my friend.

    I'm not a fishing fan and I don't like it when people do it for a sport unless their catch is not wasted and actually turns into a meal.

    I confess I cheated ( biggrin ) I just thought it would be appealing as a topic.

    Thanks for the positive review about catching the reader's interest. ( smile )

Glad you entered this cinquain poetry contest. Best of luck! You pack a lot of drama in this with your description of how the fish struggles and puts up a fight. Your action verbs are great. The fish's tough fight shows the nature of the marvelous fish. judi

    Thanks Judi for the positive review.

    Fishing is a game of wits ...I'm not that keen on fishing is done for mere sport but if the catch serves as a meal....

    It took me an hour to find that pic .. I wanted the fish swirling and splashing...( biggrin )

    I'm not keen on fishing as a sport but if the catch does serve as a meal I'm willing to close an eye.

    Glad you liked my entry and thank you for the 5 star

The game over, the fish, poet imagines, must have tugged, splashed, flipped and swirled high in the sky, fought for survival; well said, well done. Liked and enjoyed the read. Write to Inspire, Change.

    Nice to hear from you Alcreator.

    Yes its a question of survival ..sometimes the fish lives another day but most of the time it loses.

    Personally, I don't like fishing as a sport..but if the catch serves as a meal I'm willing to close an eye.
