Her force
Delivered strong
Came in torrential rains
Bombing thunder and lightning skies
Spring bloomed

This was a very impressive write for sure! It was great to see that you took the time to put forth an entry for both options. That was clever and very advantageous in earning points of recognition.
Nicely done.

Such a lovely attempt with the cinquain..
Brilliant. DO try hand at other forms of poetry too.. It is lovely to learn new forms..
-
This is a very powerful poem. You used the cinquain form really well and writing about the picture as well is just wonderful.
-
It's more than okay that you incorporated inspiration from the picture into this powerful cinquain. I also like that you were able to show a sharp twist from the roaring side of nature to the calmness and beauty that too comes along. Well done!
Thanks for entering, and welcome to the site.
Best wishes in the contest,
Stacy

This is a very beautiful cinquain that you've written here I absolutely like it that you went into the darker aspects of nature, and then suddenly changed gear in your last line
wonderfully done!

orthen, this is another interesting write as well a the title (cinquain), sort of lend to the fel of the abrupt change in it. this not only had a heady feel to it, but also left intriguing thoughts. image and Visions

I like the creative approach you took combining the options. This is a powerful short write and I think the center allignment does it justice, as well. Even without looking at the photo it is easy for the mind to see the picture you paint.
Very enjoyable read. Good luck in the contest and welcome to AllPoetry

This is a really good cinquain that you have done here. I like the fact that you have put the picture on to this to show the picture that you got your write from. The way that you have put both options into this write works. Well done on this write and good luck in the contest.

FANTASTIC!!!!!
This was a fantastic cinquain and I love that you incorporated both options into your entry. Please make sure to list that in your author comments by stating Options 1 & 2 - Picture 1. This really painted a vivid picture of what so called April showers can bring from mother nature. Excellent work and thank you for sharing. Welcome to All Poetry and enjoy your time on this great site. Joyce
