Comment from Sharon Haiste
I think this is a good entry for the 3-5-3 Passion writing prompt.
This short verse describes passion as a horse.
Well done and I wish you luck with the contest.

Hi, Sharon! Thank you, my friend.

Your poem is interesting. Thank you for providing your author notes. I am not sure I understand your message. I don't think true passion dies, even if one flys high before it is fully developed. If I understand what you are saying. Best wishes

Comment from Mia Twysted
I had trouble with the meaning of this piece until I read your notes. Then I took it to mean that Passion that burns bright is fast gone before it gets a chance to fulfill its desire.

Thank you, Mia, for your comment.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written 3-5-3 passion about the bad side of passion for something that makes us reach too high into the sky and ends up with burnt wings and our passion is not fulfilled

A 5-7-5 poem that creates a strong image and makes the reader stop, reread, and consider its meaning. So many of these short poems are one-dimensional. Yours provides a multi-layered experience.

Tfawcus, that is so kind of you to say! Thank you very much for the five stars.
Comment from Mr.write_4u
I like this one. I think it takes effort to compel the reader to create a vision in his mind. I also can relate to the idea that getting too close can get you burnt if you're not careful. Good luck
Happy writing,
Larry

I would imagine that would be a certainty for a winged steed to get his wings burnt while venturing through the stars. A beautifully written entry in this lune poetry contest, in this 3/5/3 passion contest, well done, good luck,blessings, Roy

Comment from rjuselius
This is a beautifully crafted piece of poetry dear anonymous! However your second line has only 4 syllables. I would take care of it straight away so you don't be disqualified.
Thank you for sharing!
Good luck!
blessings and a larger than life hug!

Rebekka, oh I am so glad you saw my error. I meant to write
"flows through the night light". I edited already. Thanks so much!

I love the idea of the white winged horse mixing it up with the stars and they singe his wings. This artwork though, actually detracts from your poem for me. I think it might be a better image without the artwork. :)
Best of luck to you in the contest.

Thank you, Moongirl, for the suggestion. I wanted a Pegasus for my burnt wings, but found only this one, with the butterfly wings. I think you are right. Maybe better to remove the artwork here.
