Your lulling, Eight-Word Poem and parallel picture made me crave a nap! I admired your abundant use of the alliteration of "s's". Best wishes in the competition- Joan

Thanks for your review. Glad you enjoyed.
Comment from Bill Schott
This eight-word poem, Sleep, has the right word count and certainly pushes the idea that these sisters sleep. Snoring dogs are just as funny as those that chase things in their dreams.

Comment from Mary Hollingsworth
Writer, and these are pets I presume, I had to zoom in on them because at first I thought they were possums. I'm sorry being that possums have this saying about them that they're faking their sleep while playing possum is the statement that's often used in this case . Now the colors of the pups were deceiving to my eyes, so I had to zoom in but I see that they're two sister pups sleeping side by side. Your eight words captured a special moment. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for your review Mary. I never thought of them as possums but now you mention it I see where you're coming from.

You have the required eight words for your poem.
The picture you selected accompanied was a great selection.
The 'snoring' I can certainly relate to... My dog is now waking me up from HIS snoring. He used to bark at me for mine.
I enjoyed your poem.

Hello my friend
Good word count. The presentation is nice. I don't understand why you repeat the line at the end. Seems repetitious. I would change the last line.

Hello Author... this is just the cutest thing! The image is adorable and the idea is just a winner! I love the idea of them snoring together. LOL I'm a sonorous gal myself and so is my boyfriend, it's fun to think of us in concert together as we sleep! LOL

They are a cute bunch of lazy little dogs. I enjoyed your contest entry, Mystery Author. Your words create great imagery. The picture is adorable. I could 'hear' them snoring together. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Respectfully, Jan

Obviously your s-letter alliteration floats so easily through your short verse. Cute picture accompanies the same.
IMHO...these very short posts will benefit in its overall presentation to FS readers if the selected font is increased in size. Initial caps are apparently your style.
