Wonderful, the poem has its defining voice, too me, if the beautiful photo is giving center stage, I had a smile that dared too turn into a laugh., Thanks for sharing.

Cheers, Pamusart;
-Boy, you have rurally accentuated and embellished the fact that when one plays hide and seek the parents are definitely hiding their minds. But they hide their minds away from, can be a large amount of things.
-The picture so supportive and relative to the conceptual theme and topic of your poem.
-Thanks for sharing and take care and have a good one and good luck in the contest.
Alex

Thank you for sharing the clever picture to help establish the mood for your 5-7-5. I admired your punctuating your poem with the serious observation in the final line. Best wishes in the competition- Joan

Oh, really nice five-seven-five poem! It's complete, astute, clear, and makes a significant point. The repetition and parallel construction make it feel firmly-structured. I like it a lot!
The picture you've used with it is really a hoot!

Yes a very cute picture. and hiding pets that peek around a corner thinking you don't know where they are, is too funny. This poem is so exactly worded to form the picture that you wanted to portray, that there is no room for any other way to say.
good luck in the contest

Yes indeed. The awareness eventually dawns sometime during the primary school years. Does it ever dawn on the adults? I am sure we all know of adults who hid their minds years ago and have forgotten now where they put them.

Hi Pamusart, a clever 5/7/5, well written and a great picture. I wonder which came first the poem or the picture? Written true to form and I wish you luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x

I am laughing at the artwork you chose - it's perfect for this small poem. Just enough humor to lighten the deep psychology of your 5-7-5. Adults do hide their minds, even the most 'open' of us, or think we do. Some of us are trained to read body language though, and that's hard to fake, and very revealing. There's also the Freudian slip. It never ceases to amaze me how much people give out without realizing it, especially over time...

Well done. Good luck in the contest!

    Thank you. Yes, that photo makes me laugh out just thinking of the little face with the eyes who can?t see and assume they can?t be seen. Thank you for your lovely review and five star rating

A very well-written 5-7-5, my first reaction to the photo was exactly what you said in your notes. If I can't see you, the changes is good you cannot see me either. Lol.

This poem says a lot in very few words. Unfortunately, the world is very, very deceptive as I am just starting to learn. You can't be too literal. It is a good 5-7-5 contest entry. I wish you luck.

    Hi, N. Rabwar. Do you mind my asking your age. As we get older, we hide more and more of our true thoughts. Maybe they would be mean. But, then you get old enough. You know who your friends. You accept them and they you imperfections and all. Thank you for your lovely review and excellent rating

    Asking soneone?s age is not really appropriate, and I stand by what I said
