This cinquain, Football, has the proper formatting and slips that top-shelf word tachycardia into our reality while we're busy screaming at the teams. Nice.

Hi Bill, Yes that was a good word LOL but it is appropriate also. Glad you like it and we will be busy cheering this Sat as my husbands team the Magpies play my team the Tigers so I may have to take some beta blockers pre match Ha Ha Cheers Christine

I really like your football Cinquain. You've explained it well. I am not a sports fan at all, but my family is. So I do GET the excitement of the game. Good luck in the contest with this well done entry. Marilyn

I enjoyed your poem about football in the form of Cinquain. It is simple, to the point, direct and yet so expressive with some of the jargon that the sport consists of... the all American game, that everyone one loves! Great job!

Hi Air Spriit. Thanks for reading my cinquain, We are in the midst of footy final in Australia so Aussie rules is our football that we love a bit different to the American style bit the cinquain is aimed at all types of football but my muse was the game I watched the other night. My husband and my teams play each other next Sat for a place in the Grandfinal in 3 weeks so we will be on the oposite side of the room next week LOL My team the Tigers won the grandfinal last year so I am hoping for another win this year. We will see. Cheers Christine

Hi, (*<*)
=Yep--surprise, it's me
= Super Cinquain entry.
= Good luck in the contest.
= While I am against this sort of blanket response, since so many have inquired about my absence--health, this -FYI- is meant to explain--and thank you all.
= I am thoroughly enjoying Tom's retirement and haven't even clobbered him over the head---YET! LOL!
= Since my son and I reconciled after his heart attack in March of this year, he and his family have visited often. I'm blessed--my prayers were answered in so many ways.
= The twins are AWESOME! They will be 6-years-old in December and are now in Kindergarten.
= I've been scarce from the sight due to so much activities with them, and our two great nieces who live here in town. They keep us young with all their activities. But, definitely worn-out as well--however in a wonderful way.
= Still have a lot going on with editing to publish and/or helping others too.
= I am sorry to those who I have followed consistently but have not been able to continue doing so, but I will be back off/on as my schedule permits to r/r.
Until we meet again ... Keep Smilin' (*<*)
Cheers, J

Good luck in the contest. Very interesting and the promise of the anticipation and excitement of the game. You captured the excitement of the game in just a few words. Nice touch adding the notation about tachycardia. Very well done, thanks for sharing.

Hi Ary, Thanks for reviewing my opem for this contest it was fun to write and of course watching the football gave me the idea as plenty hearts have a tachycardia especially when it is a close game. My husband and my team play each other next wek so that will be good to watch. As always many Cheers Christine

Wow, you are so welcome, so you will have to tell me about the game next week, Christine.

Comment from lyenochka
Well, it must take a nurse to know and use tachycardia in a poem! Fun poem and yes, I'm sure that football/soccer is a wonderful cardio workout for players and fans!

Hi Helen, Well yes I did use my knowledge but It seemed to fit the word requirement for line 4 and I am sure quite accurate in many cases LOL . Here next week my team and my husbands team play each other for a spot in the grandfinal so we are looking forward to that so our hearts will be in our mouths in anticipation. thanks for your look in Cheers Christine

So glad that you're so active! Good luck to you!
Comment from Boogienights
Football season again! I expect that I won't have a decent conversation with my husband or son until it's over, lol. I think it's great how much they love the sport and how it bonds them together..I just wish I could be a part of it. I don't understand the game although a valiant attempt has been made to teach me. Thanks for sharing, good luck in the contest.
