This a very good lanturne poem that fits the criteria perfectly and portrays an excellent message in very few words. Good luck in the competition.

Hi Mrs. KT, this is a fantastic poem with an equally great and important message. Man does seem to have a propensity to destroy things. Spot on syllable count.

Thank you, not sure if the content was meaningful or just creating the poem as required so not sure to comment but the truth is sometimes hard to justify however if we manage to destroy completely who we are nature without our help will again create a garden. So there:)
love all there is.

    Hello!
    I'm not certain I understand the first part of your review; I thought a great deal of the message I was penning. But I do appreciate your taking the time to stop by and review...

Interesting match of image and wording as nature seems caught on the fence-and the piece of nature is wilting in its captivity. That seems to mirror the idea that "destroying" never brings "peace."

This is a very challenging poem style--you've made it flow gracefully while including a clear message. well done

A very well-written Lanturne poem. Humans are a peculiar nation who try to find peace by making war with each other, while they ignore the fact that they can find peace within themselves.

Very profound, you followed the criteria admirably. Your poem says so much using limited amount of syllables. It makes the reader think, I like that. Unfortunately the battle between good and evil has always been around, and always will.

A very true poem. There is not a lot of peace in the world today, and I doubt there will be for a while. Great poem that says a much needed message.

Good poem except for one thing I see. Maybe I am wrong (I'm terrible at syllables). Line four, I think, has three syllables, not four. Good luck in the competition.

NOW THAT'S SO DEEP. How horrible it is that man feels he has to destroy. All through history we read about senseless endless destruction of man to conquer, to gain power, to gain land or assets. World is dangerous. NICELY WRITTEN. liberty justice
