I did immerse myself in your examples of using your five senses!
Love your aabb rhyme...and the different color fonts-- adds to the ambiance.
It f I had that "sixth sense"-- I'd predict this will do well, anonymous!

Comment from Jesse James Doty
This makes me happy reading this poem.
I notice the change in font color and it seems to fade a little more in the middle of the piece and then come back with more vivid colors!
Perhaps you might change the lighter-colored fonts to brighter colors? Just a thought.
I love the examples of your sensory inputs from different stimuli including snuggling with a pet or child and hearing a Dear, I love you, darling.
This is very nicely done,
Have a wonderful day,
Jesse

Excellent rhythm and rhyme in this poem conveying an illustration of each of the senses.
Clever highlighting of each of the stanzas adds emphasis to the sentiment conveyed.
Enjoyable read, easily understood messages.
Warmly,
Juliette

Comment from Paul McFarland
Clever idea using the five senses. Keep working on your meter. Some people think a poem is written in a short period of time. This is usually not the case. This is why some poems struggle with meter.

Comment from Mary Shifman
Well, I really like your light-hearted, up-lifting poem. You used imagery that certainly evoked the senses and your rhyme is good, too. Your rhythm may be off a little, but who cares? All in all, it works and it fits the requirements. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from SoulRiver
A very touching poem and it shows a lot of gratitude for the 'simpler' things in life. I really liked the imagery in the first stanza and the birds singing their happiness without any words was a great way to phrase things.

Comment from Eternal Muse
I love your five senses of happiness and the lovely and perfectly presented description of all things that make you happy. Superb presentation.
A very joyous poem that out me in a good mood.
The interesting thing is that I was the one who originally created this writing prompt on FS years ago, and they are still doing it.
Thank you sharing. My only regret is, I don't have a six

Thank you for a wonderful and very encouraging review. I am glad you thought up this contest. And that is still being used. It helps people to focus on positives, and also there are always new people joining. I am very glad it resonated and that you liked it.

And I see, my poem "I welcome life" is still being used as an example.
You did a fantastic job with the prompt. It is a winner in my eyes. Well done!

Yours is a lovely poem for a prompt. It would be nice if mine is a winner but I find it hard to predict what voters will like. I really appreciate your support and your confidence in my work. That alone makes me feel happy!
