I enjoyed reading your ode to the sweater and the circumstances surrounding it. I am wearing my mom's old sweater as I write this. Arms wrapped around me. Best of luck in the contest. Marilyn

    Comfort. I still snuggle in one of my fathers's old sweaters. His dog thought she'd be getting it but I beat her to it.

    Oh no. Poor puppy. You won the sweater. (Just kidding. You deserve the sweater.)

You have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this tribute to an item that was/is precious to you. We all have these--a ring, a coffee mug, a photo . . . a sweater.

I think this is a good entry for the Ode 5-7-5 writing prompt.
This short verse tells of a gift of a sweater.
Well done and I wish you luck with the contest.

What a lovely gift your best friend's mother gave you! And what a sweet thank you you returned her by the love, care and wearing of that purple mohair sweater. That gift was truly appreciated!

Great photograph. And nice poem to pay homage to a handmade gift. Very thoughtful. Well thought out. Clearly and creatively written. Also, it met the syllable count requirement. Nice work :)

I want a replica of your purple, mohair sweater! I have a lavender version which is also falling apart but I still wear, and it was not even handmade!! I enjoyed your salute to your substitute mum as well in this 5-7-5. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

A little ode-poem in 5-7-5 syllables about a warm sweater! How lovely! This poem gives us all the nice warm feelings the writer intended. The warmth of the material, fuzzy mohair, the warm color, shown in the picture, and the loving warmth of the mother, knitting for her daughter.

Perfect entry, suited title.

That's a very happening with your mum being taken from you when you were just a girl. I wonder, did your father raise you. But I admire you, I love this 5/7/5. Well done, blessings, good luck, blessings Roy

This is a very nice 5-7-5 poem you have penned about a sweater made for you by your best friend's mom. You used very good descriptive words and very neat imagery from the art work. Best wishes in the contest. love, Teri
