This was a very nice poem, illustrated well. Your description of basic human need could refer to children, teens, and adults, young and old. Good luck in the contest.

Your words show what the all of what the human race should do. "Lifeline" is a perfect one word last line that sums up the preceding lines. Excellent poetic form and use of words that creates a good feeling.

    Thank you Iza. I'm glad you like this. I wasn't sure about this kind of poetry either. I feel sure that you would able to do it right if I did.

The cinquain is an interesting form - building as it goes, then release for a final thought. I think you've used it effectively here, using the build as layers of description, then the final line as an interpretation of the previous lines. Great stuff :-)

A person's true needs are simple, but the limits of everything they think they need are endless. But as we age, things seem to slide slowly back to the simpler times. Thanks for sharing.
