It is sad when a great relationship grows apart. Love is something we all have to work at as it is based upon giving and taking, sharing and caring. You wrote about it quite elegantly. Nice work. Good luck in the contest :)

I like this verse that you've entered in the Minute contest.
It is a lovely read. But, I think your rhymed might be off. It should be aa bb cc dd and so on.
Best of luck with the contest.
Sharon

This is a good entry for the contest. I especially like how you've used formatting to split the stanzas, using the 8-syllable line as a smooth transition into the three 4-syllable lines {thumbs up}.

Best of luck with the competition {smiles}.

What a beautiful poem. Very descriptive, emotional. I could feel your grief when he's gone and the happiness when he returns. Very nicely done. Your artwork is beautiful. It signifying just how fragile our minds can be.

A very good beginning to a poem, Brenda, but you're missing two very important aspects:

First, the rhyme scheme -- it must be aabb, ccdd, eeff

Second, your poem should be three stanzas

Please let me know when you've had a chance to re-work and I would be happy to re-review. :) Thank you and good luck with your endeavors! :)

    Thank you. I misunderstand. I thought it just needed to be 844. That's why it was so short.

    Thanks again. I reworked the poem but once completed it has too many stanzas. I'm attempting to remove it from contest consideration. Because i believe that to remove one of the stanzas would diminish the poem.
