This is a wonderful cinquain-the first and last lines relate and syllable count is perfect.
I like the way you have a give-and-take with two people-how you treat others and expect the same from others.
Well done!!

Wonderful cinquain, DragonSoul. I marvel at the possibilities for the form. Your choice of reciprocity is an excellent theme that shows off well, here.

Nicely done, DS! A fine cinquain. They are more difficult to write than Lune poems. I think that poetic form is my new favorite! Like haiku but better!

First, Dragonsoul, thank you for commenting on "Married Late in Life."

Your villanelle is good, your cinquains are jewels.
