This is excellent writing. Angel gently weeps as the wicked conquer grace. Armageddon comes. You have an awesome photo that works well with your words. We are all gloom and doom at some point Especially with so many challenging events happening.

Some days it surely seems that this three liner is telling the truth. Listen out for the four horsemen to come riding. When you hear them You will know you are right. This is compliant withing the form required by the contest.

This certainly does provoke doom and gloom. You said a lot in three lines. Your illustration pairs perfectly and sets the stage for your words. Nicely done.

A very emotional and thought-provoking offering for the contest, Val -- and it is so true: hard these days to keep up that 'positive' attitude when things seem to 'stack up', yeah? :/ :/ Well done and best of luck in the contest! ;)

Well done Val. I thought the image of you used of a sorrowful angel weeping over all of the chaos and confusion that has been happening during this year was great. I've had those same thoughts about the world ending too so I can relate to your thinking that Armageddon may be coming soon. Fantastic job with the poetry.

I like the image of the angel weeping, for during these times angels are weeping. Excellent poem that is relevant to today and gives the reader much to contemplate. Excellent three line poem.

Going through the daily difficulties of pandemic, hurricanes, tornadoes, huge fires, and now rioting in our streets, if has to make us think. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely agree. The poem should convey something. At least it should be "felt". That could be joy, but very often it is rage or sadness. Armagedon makes me think, which was your aim. Well done!

Yes, this poem does give readers much to think about esp in these troubled times across the globe. Your image is a good pairing with your contest entry. I believe the word Armagedon is written this way-->Armageddon / and the 2nd line has only 6 rather than 7 syllables (wicked = 1)
If I'm mistaken, please forgive me.
Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

    Jan, you were right about Armageddon (though I have seen it spelled both ways). I have taken your advice on that. You are wrong about wicked, as I have checked it out twice. None the less, thank you for the input. Val

    You didn't upset me, as you were right on one count but not on the other. I appreciate the input. I am on this site to get honest feedback, and yours was.

That was an amazing poem and I hope you can write more stories and I also could not stop reading it and I hope you get the recognition you need for this poem.

Sincerely, Ayan
