I really like your Feelings Contest poem. The writing gives permission to express one's self in different ways. Great job.
It's okay to rely on a friend
When you feel that you have reached "the end."
It's okay to feel you have to cry
And not understand the reason why. [favorite stanza]

Very good expression of how to handle those feelings we all get, particularly when we lose a loved one and need that time to heal.
One point you made really struck home, your last line;
"Listen to a friend that needs to talk."
So often needed, and so often ignored. We are in such a rush to get nowhere we often do not pick up on the hint our friends give us when they are too bashful to ask, or afraid they will burst into embarrassing tears.
Good work,irish

Comment from Anne Johnston
This is a well-thought out poem about expressing feelings. So many times, we hide what we are feeling because we don't want others to think badly of us. But God created us with emotions, and there is no shame in expressing how we feel and reaching out for help.

Lovely poem about feelings...very well-written and conforms to the guidelines. Good luck in the contest, but you have a fine entry here. Your last line is great. Sometimes a person has no one to listen to them.

I enjoyed reading your writing prompt. I have, just today, learned about 'writing prompts.' The good thing for me is I get to read some really good poetry. I think I have every emotion you described. I am pretty sure I have. Thank you for sharing.

A warm and tender poem that makes the reader feel good. Rhyming is there and makes the poem compliant with contest requirements.
The accompanying picture sums up the unspoken feelings admirably. I like the title for the poem. It's a feel good title.
All the best for the contest

What a wonderful poem. I like the "It's OK" thread that binds it all together. It has a nice rhythm to it, it reads very well, and all of the rhymes are perfect. Thanks for sharing your poem and best of luck in the contest!

Those are all the wonderful feelings that we experience throughout our lives. We need to accept that life is a flowing river that ripples occasionally and glides as well. Go with the flow. We are feeling beings and how we feel guides us through life.

Comment from Frances Jean
Yes, it's definitely OK. Loved your poem, the imagery and rhyming. I believe you have a winner here. It's sometimes difficult to express ourselves in emotional circumstances and sometimes we just don't know how. All the very best for the competition.
