There are those whose effects on the world are only felt in their true depth after they pass, and it's then that we feel humbled and lessened. You say it well in your short, tightly formed poem.

This felt so sad and yet I felt hope. The world does indeed lose its color when someone passes on. Your picture fit your words so well. Blessings

You wrote a very emotional poem and used on a few short words. I enjoyed reading it and hope this isn't a personal loss. Good luck with the contest.

I think that you have captured the essence of the loss people feel when death occurs.
I especially liked:
All the world deeply saddened
For the greatness lost.

A very sad, short poem. If someone that you did know actually did die, then sorry. On the bright side, this poem had no grammer errors.
Best of luck in the contest!

This certainly tells of the sadness and starkness of death. Only a few words but as effective any longer pieces. This should do very well in the contest.

It is a sad day when one dies, it is most sad when he is greatly loved. A great 5-7-5 to do and no photo needed at all. Thanks.

How sad... I am sorry his life stopped today. But his life didn't end today.
I truly believe since we are made of energy, that we just change forms and go to another place. GREAT 5=7=5 form poem. Thanks, Pamela

This is very sad boom. I remember thinking almost this exact thought when my Dad passed. All his knowledge and ability gone. But then I realized that it wasn't really gone, because I would remember it. A comfort amidst tears.

An excellent entry for the contest. There is a finality to these few lines that express the grief following a death. Good luck in the contest.
