Ulla...this is a very touching and emotion-packed 2-10-2 contest entry poem. I really enjoyed reading it. Sometimes, it's harder to write shorter than longer because it is difficult to make a sensible statement in so few syllables. For me, anyway. Good job! God bless and hugs, Susanne

I felt all of the emotion and feeling you put behind the poem. The words are so powerful that the artwork is not needed to project the emotion. Very well written.

An amazing entry to contest or even standing alone as a poem. It truly speaks and blesses each reader as emotion is relatable with so few words and lines. It's wonderful.

What will they think of next a 0-0-0? I think your interpretation of this picture is marvelous. It is applicable both in general terms - an appeal to a lover to return and ekphrastically from the one flower in the vase to the one that has fallen out.

Hahaha, I agree, it's getting there, isn't it? A blank page and a lot to say about nothing. The emperor's new clothes all over again. Ups, sorry, I am Danish after all. Thanks for your great review. All the best. Ulla:)

I will, next time I go to Denmark. Haven't lived there since 1992 and now live in Spain. Ulla:)

Warmer there I imagine.

I was thinking of our soldiers in harms way this day after treading your poem. No doubt wives think as your strong words imply. Best to you in the contest. Well done.

So beautifully illustrated in words betrayal and loss of love. It will be a long time until the poet realizes that it is a good thing he left if he doesn't love you. Very well done

These short form poems are getting more and more like tweets or texts every day, it seems. This embodies the message stripped down to it's essence. What else is there to say? This says it all.

Ulla,

I found your artwork choice interesting. I don't know if you meant it to be
humorous...but, that lousy flower jumped right out and has no hope of coming home. At least she is standing there with water in her transparent house.

Why some people want them to come back after that...is beyond me?

Nice entry!

Linda
