Comment from rama devi
WOW! this is powerful and so well voiced in spite of having two lines starting with OF, which is not ideal. The enjambment between lines is important for the swift pacing and impacting closing line. Bravo. Fine alliteration of H. Just one spag:
Homo
Sapien(')s heart
Good luck in the contest.

Oh yes you are so right about 'of' -ooops !!!Yes I looked up that spelling and it doesn't require an ' since that is the singular form - difficult to find an answer to this spag even with vast resources of internet at our disposal ""zanya

Oops!~ I did not know it was singular. You're right! Duh! :)

Good Cinquain with a strong
message about the destruction
of mother nature.
I still believe there is hope she can
recover.
Good luck in the contest.

Great review zanya
Comment from LIJ Red
I am not an authority on poetic form, especially the shorter ones. I can look for message, assonance, alliteration, and syllable count, and if all seems right, like this one, I call it excellent.

Comment from Kingsland
We are destroying the lifeblood of this Earth that nurtures and feeds us all. This short poem say a lot about the true nature of man's neglect. This was a well-written verse that has a very good message in it. I enjoyed reading and writing this response for it... John

Good contest entry. Hope you do well. I've given up on contests. The voting seems to be based on who has the most friends.

This is a very clever and profound poem about the destruction of our beautiful planet. The photo is PERFECT for bringing the message alive. Overall a really nice presentation. Best of luck in the contest.
