This is such a beautiful and very profound poem. The rhyming that you did implement is very good and appropriate. This is a really clever poem that tugs at the heartstrings, very creative. Best of luck in the contest.

A very well-written free verse poem. It is a free verse poem where you are set free from meter and rhyme schemes. Occasional rhyme is allowed as long as there is no fixed pattern.

I like your poem very much. The repetition of the word teardrop is very effective. Besides, the word itself is very beautiful.
Good luck in the competition!

Love the picture and love the words you put with it. I also very much love the words you picked to use. 'I will continue to pen as I allow my heart to speak.....'
love that. Enjoyed the read.

A single teardrop shrieks with pain
Seeing innocent people being killed
By terrorist acts and vicious deeds
Families are broken and in despair

WOW, you pinned an amazing poem about the sadness happening in this world. What a Beautiful poem reminded me of the war I passed through for 16 years. Loved the picture it says it all. Bless u Terry xo

So very sad and beautiful. So many single teardrops falling these days. End times? I don't know, times throughout history have actually been worse, child labor, slavery, ect....but, nowadays, people seem to have put truth behind them, sad....I love this, blessings....

This is a good entry in the Free Verse competition. You have written a poem that is very clear on the subject it is trying to convey - the message of sadness and heavy hearts from the fear, death and destruction that goes on around us, all over the world, every day. Yes, all lives matter and we must continue to pray for a peaceful and better way. Well done on this piece and best of luck in the competition. ~DD
