The pic is beautiful and adds to your excellent contest entry. Your first two lines expresses hope and optimism of love maybe, but the third line ended the dream. I wish you great luck in this contest,,,,,,,Jim

A wonderful image of a flower that lasts as long as the love.
Five days.
This is well done and says a lot in so few words.
Great job!

It wasn't a long romance, that's for sure. Thanks so much!

Lot sad in a few words in this engaging little gem of poetry. Sad and beautiful story of a short lived love. Entertaining reading and a great idea.

Comment from Nika2016
A man who gives a flower and leaves...is not worth a scent...
smile....
It is a lovely little poem that has a feeling of Medieval musings and yet modern too...
Nice work...

Excellent 5-7-5 contest entry. Romantic beginning with a very sad ending. What a horrid man, five days and then he left? Hmm, she is better off without him! lol. Very well done, and good luck! :) Sandra xx

Thank you, Sandra! It sure wasn't much of a romance...(at least to both of them) Thanks again, Blessings.
Comment from mrsmajor
Your poem was in perfect syllable count, as required for the contest...but sadly there was not a happy ending...I like how you wrote this, as I can imagine the scent of the flower lingering...and I also get the idea that for those days he remained...and all was well...Thanks for sharing this with us, it was very thoughtful, and the picture was well chosen for the poem...
Warmly,
Victoria

Excellent photo of a beautiful flower that complements your tiny poem perfectly. He gave you a flower, five days its scent lingered. He stayed no longer- the boyfriend, I suppose. Dead on syllable count, and a different look on romance. One tip: I would consider to centre the poem. Best wishes for the prompt.

It sounds like a short romance indeed. I can see the flower and smell the fragrance with the words that you used, the artwork complements your poem perfectly.
