Welcome to the site Austin.
This is a great start. Congrats on getting an honorable mention in the contest with your first poem
This is a funny picture that opposes the calmness of the poem. It seems like this is a beach that has flooded out. It is witty to think that ducks need a lifeguard to keep them safe while they swim.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a great rest of the day and week.

Congrats on your milestone and honourable mention! This is a very evocative 5-7-5, requiring no image, such is the calm and tranquility of this bluegrass morning. Thanks for sharing Debbie

"Ducks glide on water's mirror" is a marvelous line. I like the image your create with your words. Your 5-7-5 form takes the reader out into nature and creates a feel for being there. Excellent use of words.

Welcome to fan story, Austin! Wonderful first post you have here. Imagery is very strong. The break of day is a magical time that you have captured, via ducks.

The wonderful thing about a new day, it's very similar to New Year's Day because it's a new beginning, a fresh start, the mercies of God are new every morning, Lamentations 3:22-23, beautifully written welcome to fanstory, blessings Roy

Hello Austin, your poem has good imagery. I can see the whole scene, including the break of day slowing turning into a new day. Good 5-7-5 format. A pleasure to read. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck. Margaret ~ LateBloomer
