Thank you Andrea. 13 of us got first place and your poem is at the top where I am used to seeing it. Emily‘s form is a bit of a challenge because of the brevity and the syllable count but I thought everyone really did great. Blessings xxoo

this was lovely! Not too long ago I was working in the San Joaquin delta and had to stop and take a pic of a blooming cherry by a willow on the river bank...now I read this and I'm going wow again with the same picture but with deeper beauty added to it this time!! :)

Looking at these two trees so close together, they just gave me a sense of romance, he a Willow and she a cherry. I’m very pleased that you liked my poem Susan. Thank you for your lovely comment. Blessings xxoo

I edited it now. You're right; thanks for sharing the new form with us:-)Alexis

Thank you very much Alexis. This is not a haiku however, it is a newer form I have never tried. The brief syllable count and rhyme make it a challenge. I am off to get some sleep now. You have a great weekend my friend. Blessings xxoo

Thank you Victor. I had to hurry as his contest was about to close. I think the Willow and the Cherry make a lovely couple of trees. (smile) hugs, Connie xxoo
