    I loved this cinquain. I believe that cinquain was the third...maybe fourth form that I tried. For a fact though, it was the first I was introduced to on AP. Cinquains are fun to write, for they can say so much, yet with so little words...yet more words(usually), than a haiku. You have done an awesome job with this 22 syllable piece. You even had a bit of imagery and a lot of fairy activity stated in this piece. I love how you ended the piece with magic...such a subject that fairies are known for. Keep up the great work and keep writing!

    I love poems having to do with fairies and fayes. Do you believe that they are real? Or is this just a piece about the folklore? Keep on writing.
    Blessed be,
    LeFay

    This is nice and airy, as I think a cinquain should be. I enjoyed the subtle use of alliteration. I really liked the use of the word magic. I think it is so good for writers to try new forms. I just finished taking a tanka form class. It was so much fun and I learned so much from it.

    I have written only one fantasy piece. I am giving you a link in case you are interested in reading it. I'm not usually good at writing such things, but this one just rolled out for me. allpoetry.com/Poem/774390

    I like the background that you picked to go with your poem, it works nicely. Nice font color as well.
    Thank you for entering this contest in honor of my friend, Del. He would (and I am sure he is) smile, watching the interaction between the poets.

    Wow, great imagery. Short and sweet! If I didn't know the title of this, I would recognize your description of a fairy. I try to do that a lot. Try reading a poem without seeing the title. Then try to guess the title. If you get it, it's kind of a sign that they did a good job. But try to keep an open mind to crappy pieces!
    Nice work!
