Truth, Dare, Kiss or Promise!

Loved the first stanza, moya. The second stanza, I think would flow better if it was shortened slightly on a couple of lines. Dare do something new each day That's a satisfying game to play Others may want to have their say Just give a smile and say okay! Just thought those two lines had too many words in them to flow naturally. Hope you don't mind!

What a cracking idea carried through. I think this is one of your best poems, Moya.

one little crit on the final stanza. You have used the broken rhyme twice... could I suggest maybe doing something with awoken Promise my heart will be awoken Cruel words will be left unspoken If love is more than *just* a token It will *never* be a promise broken Just an idea to get past the same word rhyme.

So then, Miss Poet Laureate! Expect you're pretty pleased with yourself eh? Thought so, cherries for poetry, for Moya, are they mad? But on a serious note, this is really good stuff. I don't know how i missed it when you originally did it 6 days ago! My favourite is the third stanza, it flows really well. Cherries for poetry, whatever next!

I loved the message you imparted here, Moya, and leading right into the final stanza which justified the title. Really clever of you to use the name of an old children’s game for inspiration. Excellent rhyme and metre, and in fact, the syllabic count of your matching lines was bang on. It was obvious you paid great care and attention to this particular point. I could see you in my mind’s eye counting on your fingers as you read through. Well done, yet another string to your bow - poetry. Deserved the cherries and all the lovely comments. Trev
